I was on unemployment at one point when I was younger. The state required that I apply for X amount of jobs weekly and I took it pretty seriously only to find out they don't even verify whether you did or not.
Same in Denmark, but bottom line is that they could find out if you're cheating and eventually you'll end up in a category, where they'll just place you somewhere likely undesireable..
Incentive to employment can be forced upon people and it should too; if you're able to contribute in any way, you owe it to society or at least to your fellow man..
