Great unwashed to do manual work for benefits

[suityou01]

Of course they will, simply because there is no incentive to not be on benefits.

How many whinging chavs do you see on he news items about benefits maintaining they cannot get a job as they are better off claiming dole and they won't earn enough as a worker.

Making people realise they cannot get summat for nowt can't happen soon enough.

I think SY01 is genuinely confusing me with RC (quite a compliment to me) because it was he posting a couple of weeks back about this, and he also admitted he used an umbrella.

Of course they will, simply because there is no incentive to not be on benefits.

split infinitive

There is nothing wrong with splitting infinitives in English. It is only bad practice when parsing between Latin and English. To knowingly, wilfully and intentionally - and with legitimacy in English, as here I demonstrate - infinitive split, exemplified.

To get back on-topic, at some point in the past few years they've changed the rules about JSA. I was expected to provide evidence of having applied for jobs. I now have to also provide a timesheet showing I am carrying out at least 40 hours of job-seeking related activity every week. (Which is more hours than the Job Centre staff have to do.) So you don't get JSA for watching telly. But you only get that fr 6 months and then you're onto income support (or some such). All the other benefits, however, are another matter... as far as I can see you get them for doing nothing.

Except getting preggers. The government still pays you for getting up the duff. So the chavs are being paid to shag without protection.

Personally, I think child benefit should be scrapped. If you can't afford kids, you shouldn't be having them.
