This is the sort of "mentality" I've often seen on message boards. Someone generalises, using a "big brush" (whether deliberately or accidentally) and then "can't see" why others take exception to it.

The fact that your comments can be interpreted (not "twisted") in this way, suggests that you are making excessively broad remarks.

However this is off topic for this thread, so I hope to leave it here.
I dont believe i was generalising. I was posting a message that was somewhat tongue in cheek. If you re-read my post it doesnt generalise at all.

My point was and still is ....whtas the difference between somone living in this counrty who sponges off the state and somone who is intending to gain access to milk the system. I would say non.
That isnt to say that everyone who claims benefit is sponging. By sponging i mean people who are less than honest or people who dont want to work and make an honest way. I would hate anyone to think i was generalising.

Sorry for the confusion.
