When l was unemployed l was on benefit of £75.00 per week and l had a wife and two children. Now l have a job, since 2009 my wages have not risen and told recently that l will not get a pay rise until 2015 due to financial pressure on the employer.

BUT bills have gone up and so l think it would be better off on benefit. NO rent to pay, NO council tax to pay - would l go on benefit, no l would not.
I should probably point out Arthur that the changes to the benefit system that are coming in i.e rent capping that you where so vocal AGAINST a few months ago are designed to stop people being better off on the dole
