Make them work for benefits

Three non-working families have just won a test court case in Germany this week for more dole money as they have proved that they need more to survive,

All non working families in Germany are going to get more free cash from now on, the working taxpayers over there will just have to pay more tax,

It must be time to get out of the EU before it is too late and implemented on us here, we can't all go on the dole can we?

Sadashi, the people on my estate without cars are usually the ones on the minimum wage going out to work, and working hard for their cash,

Most of the ones who don't go out to work and pay tax out of wages, all have cars because they have a secret sideline making untaxed cash on top of their benefits, some of them with very expensive cars and big campervans,

This is pretty obvious in a lot of cases, but all the government does is put a few adverts out about benefit fraud to keep the taxpayers quiet, the CSA can just go round to an absent parents house who isn't working (or paying little or nothing) and decide that if it "looks" like the person has more cash than they say they have, then the CSA gives them a big bill, just on their judgement alone,

Why can't this formula be rolled out onto the long term jobless with flash cars and consumer goods? the government can now access passport controls departure records to catch them that are on benefit's going on foriegn holidays, as they have been barcode scanning passports for five years now, when you have lived on a council estate for thirty years you get to see who is scamming the workers of the country.

To label all people unfortunate enough to have to rely on benefits to get by as scroungers and malingerers is misguided and ignorant to say the least. These people are forced to grovel to insensitive government agencies for a weekly pittance just to survive and prevent them from having to go begging on the streets, which is degrading. The money that they receive goes on housing costs and food, they cannot afford new clothes, adequate nutrition or even public transport most of the time. It's all very well to say "make them work", but what you have failed to point out is that most of these poor people are more than willing to work, but fussy, greedy employers refuse to give jobs to those most in need. People who receive benefits are human beings just like the rest of us and do not deserve more persecution than that they already receive from employers and the government. I have had first-hand experience of the way these people are forced to live and it is a hard, miserable life with little or no hope. How I jumped for joy when I was offered a job. I took it with both hands and am now giving back to society much more than I ever claimed in assistance. Next time you eat your fillet steak, spare a thought for those who can't even afford to buy meat because employers are ripping the people most in need off.

I wouldn’t worry too much about people on benefits.
And I wouldn’t worry to much about your tax bill ether.
Because all the jobs are going to foreign immigrants and soon all British people will be on benefits and won’t have to pay tax?

There is a woman over the road who lives in a three bed council house with panoramic views, who hasn't worked for twenty years that I know of, she is now 60, nothing up with her, we have to keep her,

Also over the road is a 50 year old man who hasn't worked for 18 years, he has a big motorbike and car, nothing up with him, we have to keep him,

On the council estate which I live on, there are hundreds like them that havn't worked for years, nothing up with a lot of them, we have to keep them.

I will retire at 66, and if I am lucky, I will have four years of retirement, whilst all these idlers have decades of it,

My thanks to the government for allowing it.

Basically, I have read your statement and I have had a good think about it and how you talked about those people who are on benefits. You are a shallow-minded person who only thinks about themself. The way you have labelled a person who is on benefits is wrong. You don't know a person's situation and why they can't go to work. Your attitude stinks and you don't have any knowledge of people's situation. You should think about a person's situation before you open your mouth.

You do have a point but you are wrong in some sense. We are not scroungers, we are people who are willing to work but can't get a proper job to look after our household.
Some of us do have qualifications but can't get a proper job. You need to take the time out and analyse a person's situation before you start judging people. If the shoe was on the other foot and someone wrote that statement maybe you would be feeling the same way I am feeling now. Take your head out of the clouds and bring it back to earth. Try to understand a person's situation before you start blabbing off your mouth. Consider that for the future.

I'm not a scrounger. I feel that not everyone is able to manage. People have a lot of bills to pay and can't survive without financial support. There are people who go to college and have a lot of coursework that needs to be done and they may have children to pick up from school.

I am sure that not everyone who is on benefit spends their income on drinks and cigarettes. I think that is very small-minded and stereotypical towards people who need financial help with their finances.

Your opinion does not matter because this has been going on for a very long time and has helped many people in life and has supported many families in the past.

This is not a way to label or call any names because there are many people in your class today in this situation who have grown up on benefits but even you could not criticize them because they have been there but they have made something of themselves.

Sorry meant to say politicians! I need to get it right

Can't make people work for benefits? Well that’s just what this government is doing.
How pathways to work, the new way to discriminate against the sick and disabled?
But if you are a drug addict then you are put on benefits for life.
That is self inflicted and they are the true bourdon on society?
O and the thieving parasitic plantations lining there own pockets?
and all the business premises that are available to let these days are being used for that very purpose!

Can't make people work for benefits as there aren't enough jobs. Just look at all the business premises that are available to let these days! Employers are really fussy too, and they can be. Too many unemployed, too few jobs. That's the bottom line! Immigrants and greedy corporations always looking to squeeze max profits just make the problem even worse!

The government should be making sure there are jobs out there for people. Then there won't be any need for silly schemes like work for benefits!

How can this government be saving the tax payers cash when they are paying out what they are saving in wages and big fat bonuses? Pathways to work it’s a con it is designed to discriminate against the disabled and sick of this country and nothing else?
