Why do you feel that the genuinely ill, who I assume you include in "everyone else", should be "forced to work"?
Read the article again - it is the long-term jobless not the long-term sick

Nobody "earns" anything on benefits - particularly not a "wage".

That aside, why do you feel that vulnerable people should not be afforded assistance in the shape of housing benefit?
Again - read the article. This isn't about sick or "vunerable" people. It is the long-term work shy that won't work because they know the government will give still give them money if they don't.
