I'm very much a capitalist and libertarian, but how will people handle rioting in the streets from the unemployed?

If one can get away with working only 1-2 hours/day, and relax the rest of the day, why would he riot?  If capitalism and the free market are allowed to work their magic unadulterated by government ineptitude, this would be the end result -- an incredibly high Standard of Living:Work ratio.
