With them dealt with, it should in theory, free up more funds for those who are actually in need, either by direct funding, or tax cuts.

Unfortunetly that is not how it works in this country and i doubt it ever will.
I have been out of work coming up to 2 and a half months now due to illness...and my health is slowly getting worse in a few ways meaning i cant go back to work, im nearly out of money...and i cant get on dissability, i cant afford to live and pretty soon im going to be royally screwed, yet i see loads of people who just cant be bothered to work having everything paid for them, have HDTVs, nice cars etc and dont have a worry in the world, i find it majorly unfair.
Even people who are not ill in some sort of way find it very hard to climb up the ladder and get somewhere in life, for here instance even a basic minimum wage job requires you to have some sort of qualification or another (just to do very basic work that really needs little skills), suppose answer would be to go to uni get some qualifications and progress yourself, thats fine, if you have the money to do so but when the govt is constantly pushing up fees, tax and the likes, its pretty much impossible. one thing you do find out in the end is companies would rather take people on who have the experience rather than qualifications, but you cant get experience if no one will hire you, and you cant get qualifications if you cant afford to go to uni etc, its a no win situation.
