    Nonsense - unless you know the equation for balancing the karma of allowing 'bad stuff' to carry on unreported vs karma for reporting said 'bad stuff'..
    loose does not rhyme with choose but lose does and is the word you meant to write.

    Just because you're entitled doesn't mean you have to.

    Well of course, but my question was why not claim what you're entitled to? Or to put it another way, what is wrong with claiming what you're entitled? In the context of this thread, claiming for subsistence in line with government set allowances is incomparable to committing fraud.
