The Gov't is giving these people money so that they can live, not so that they can buy a huge-ass TV and fags whilst their kids have tatty clothes that are two sizes too small.

If you want to mistreat your kids, get a job (I'm kidding with this line, of course).

How is it not a good idea?

 

how about the right to privacy?

So... right to privacy > the treatment of children?

 

no, thats not what im saying, im saying you cant tell people what they can and cant buy, its wrong, i think mistreating children is abhorent and if kids are being treated badly, we should send the parents to rehab or jail and if neccesary take the kids into care where they will be safe

Stop Misrepresenting My Posts, It Really, Really Pisses Me Off

That's not misrepresenting.  That's reality.

By not making sure where the money is going children will be abused and used as cash cows.

Hence why the government should deal in the actual goods and not hand out money.

 

thats fine, i think that would work better anyway, it would give them more incentive to work, think about it, you get all the basics no matter what, thats fine, but we all want more, so we work for any extras we want
