Benefits are pointless if you can't give people the right tools to get out of a shit hole. They have lived like that for generations, they need more people intervention to help break a cycle.

 

it is no different to generational dole bludgers i guess.

And they’ve lived as a hunters/gatherers society for far longer. At what point do tax payers stop being the ones paying for them and they start standing on their own legs?

That is why I said benefits are pointless. It is a cheap way for governments to sweep problems under the carpet. They should be encouraged through educational tools to skill up to get jobs.  

You are right they need to stand on their own legs but when you got 3 generations of relatives above you living in the same house telling you otherwise it is hard to break that cycle mentally. Sample principle applies with generational dole bludgers. Hell i seen some make fun of relatives that got out of the cycle calling them black sheep of the family lol.
