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

I overheard a funny conversation on the weekend regarding benefits.

I went into Wetherspoons at about 08:45 Saturday morning for some breakfast, one of the usual groups of circa 09:00 drinkers started to arrive, they ordered their Brains Dark, Guiness etc as they do every day of the week. There were 4 of them sat down as I was eating my breakfast and they were discussing a mutual friend, it went like this:

I don't know what he does with his money, he gets the same benefits as I do but he doesn't come out. What the hell does he spend it all on.

I wasn't sure if it was appropriate to laugh or cry
