Re: The state benefits system mega-thread. Many merged.

I don't support anyone getting more in benefit then they would in work unless they are medically proven to be unfit for work and even then only if they live in one of the higher cost cities. But to pretend the majority or even sizable minority enjoy a lavish life on benefit is making it too easy to hit the vast vast majority of claimants who are just the same as working people they are good decent honest people trying to do their best and getting royally kicked in the teeth at the minute. This hate culture that is growing around the welfare state is a very bad road to go down and not one that anyone will enjoy if it continues.

As for osbourne and his "all critics are living in another land and have no credible suggestions" yeah if you say so george many groups from the disabled sector tried to work with this government and offered many suggestions and were ignored. The main problem was that on closer inspection many of the assumptions the government made were completely wrong and could not be backed up by hard data, even the office for national statistics doesn't back up much of what the government says.
