This is not really a safety net Vincent, but you are really talking investments. How would a state judge your capabilities in this.
I think the basic support is in place besides some counterproductive conditions that go with it, eg (as you said) the obligatory job applications.
So essentially anyone with entrepreneurial spirit can start kicking it. A safety net seems very unsafe method to foster/filter entrepreneurs.
Best method in my opinion is to support growth and activity as much as you can as a government and provide low thresholds for startup needs.
In short, i am a Brad Feld schooled adept ;) Entrepreneurs are the leaders, others, like government are feeders and should not sit on the leader chair in any way.
