No point working - why not just go on benefits?

don't you realise youth unemployment is a massive problem? it's really hard for many to get a job after education. they've never worked a day in their life - should we just let them starve?
Its no point trying to twist what im saying to make me look bad, sunshine tours figured out who i was referring to quite easily so why couldnt you.
I openly admit that i couldnt care less if every benefit CHEAT gets their benefits stopped and suddenly has to live on the streets and get their food out of bins and have their children put into care (the kids may then have a chance of becoming a decent human being), try being surrounded by benefit cheats every day listening to them openly brag about how much they are getting and giving each other tips on how to get more and then to go on and tell the people stood around them that they are stupid to be working.
Thats the world i live in and it absolutely disgusts me that the government do nothing about it.0 -
I have heard twice now in two different instances that my daughters friends have been told by the people in the benefits office to go away and get pregnant that way they can claim more benefits and get a council flat
this is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo wrong
I've bought my children up to know the value of working etc but its hard when my daughters friends are all having babies but can still afford to get their nails done, hair done, go clubbing every week
this country is going to pot and theres nothing we can do about it
proud to be British I think not !!!!0
