I think that's what the biggest block is in getting a job or not getting a job. to a lot of people it's 'is it worth getting out of bed for'
And that's what the Government are trying to change - that sort of attitude is not acceptable; if they can work, they should do, rather than everyone else supporting them.

Remember - the main revenue the government has is tax, and we (on the whole) pay for that minority who don't choose to work (I am not including those who are not able to work in that comment).
