Oh I have no problem with the majority of your rant as I actually agree with a number of your points (see my above posts) the only point that I don't agree with is your suggestion that
most people on welfare are spongers. Now if you were to say that a certain percentage of people on welfare were getting money that they have no rights to then I'd support your rant whole heartedly.
Like your Paul I've worked since I was 15 and I've been paying my taxes since I was 17. In all those years I have never received any money from the welfare system even though I was out of work for 4 months after the plant I worked in closed down. Pride meant I refused to claim job seekers allowance in that time as a part of me would be ashamed to even go in and ask for it.
Let's face it we all have a problem with the increase in people that are leeching money from the system due to their sheer idleness and I'm not even going to get started on those mobile baby factories that are hanging about in the city centres instead of going to school these days.
There are however people out there that claim welfare to help top their earnings up so that they can afford to raise their kids and look after their families properly. Are these people sponging? No. Are they a minority? Probably
