Re: The state benefits system mega-thread. Many merged.
That one last night was a bit more focussed on the bigger problem. such as people in work claiming benefits.
it can be the case that somebody working is receiving more benefits than a benefit scrounger.
you have to ask at the start of these debates whether it's hate towards people not working. or the actual cost.
if it's the cost. then focus on the unpaid taxes from the rich. the winter fuel payments to the rich. there's many places where there's millions, if not billions of pounds to be had in an instant.
but we're stuck either arguing about **** not working. or **** costing us what is a few pence compared to the bigger problem that we ignore.
