These women or parasites or however you want to call them, are not the problem. Welfare is the problem.
A government solution to a problem is always worse than the problem.


No, the problem is the fact that the fittest hoard their wealth while letting the less fit starve and/or struggle like little slaves until they die a broken down, depressed old person. If everyone in this world would chip in and help, we'd all have enough food, houses, cloths etc.


Whenever there is a system where everyone "chips in", those who administrate the system, make sure to put some in their pocket. Socialism and other collective systems always fail because they contradict human nature.

LOL. Human nature was developed in the evolution. In evolutionary terms we are social life-forms: humans cannot survive on their own. We only survived and developed in evolution, because humans and their predecessors always formed groups of people that supported each other. So basically supportive systems ARE human nature.

That is not what socialism means. In most forms of socialism, there is a collective form of administration that has a firm grip over the economy. In theory wealth is produced according to the ability of each individual, and then distributed by the collective according to the needs of the people. In theory this is all nice an rosy. But in reality the human beings that are given the task of administration, have historically always put their mitts in the honeypot. There are also other inherent problems like lack of productivity, but lets leave that for another conversation.

To all of you who think that policies like Obamacare can be good. I urge you to look at what happened to the european south. All these countries including mine, had a massive welfare system and a hypertrophic public sector, along with insane taxes to support them. Look where it got them. You can't repeat the same thing over and over, and expect a different result.



Makes my blood boil, i work so hard to provide a decent living for my family, yet there are people who live in the next estate along who dont work and sit around all day. They have a bigger house than me, a better car, bigger tv and all the fucking gadgets you can think of. The government need to realise that its us workers who carried our country through the recession. I believe if you are from another country you should not be allowed to reside her unless there is something you can bring to our country ie skills,willingness to work, business plans. Too many people take advantage of us for a free ride, and if you speak up you are told you are a racist..freedom of speech my arse.

But by "I'm gonna be rich" she doesn't mean having 3 luxury cars and a 15 bedroom mansion. She means having enough money to get by while living in reasonable accommodations and having a bit left over. And if she's actually a good mum (might be doubtful) having a bunch of kids and raising them by herself is hardly an easy life. And if she's not a good mum she's mostly going to be miserable because her kids are going to make her life hell.

I don't know how it is exactly in the UK, but here the child support payments from the father(s) contributes to but does not augment the welfare money received from the state. So only if the father is really wealthy and their 20% of net income (I think) exceeds the welfare payment does the mother actually get more than the standard welfare payment. And in that situation there's no taxpayer money involved.

As already said, the only way to get really rich off welfare is to commit fraud, and even then that's not going to be millions. Spitting out kids at regular intervals but still only getting what you're legally entitled to is only a way to secure a livable income without having to find paid employment. It's not a get rich scheme by any stretch.

Beneficiaries have never caused a recession or a financial collapse or an economic downturn. All of the major economic crises have been cause by those at the top of the economic heap. If you want to actually fix society's economic ills look to the causes of the economic bad times, not the victims or the symptoms.

Having children for self financial gain is sick and irresponsible, if the said person cant afford to keep themselves then why bring children into the world to also live in poverty. Are these children loved? or just a convenience, its simply not fair on the children. I dont know if anybody here is familier with the Mick Philpott story. The sick fuck killed 6 of his kids in a house fire, it was a stunt to try and get a bigger house that backfired, the children suffered , he wasnt interested in them, but the financial gains they bought him.

I don't say, that some or many existing systems don't workor have big problems. I don't say such systems are misused by the mighty. All I say is: if you think supporting others isn't in human nature you're dead wrong.

Report her, the welfare system should be about people with no other choice and not parasites. By the way they exist in every single country,

So she gets reported...

then her kids don't get welfare and starve?

I mean, i'm not sure i see the end game here.

I guess the state could take her children... but there's nothing stopping her from having more.

Then the state could take those i guess but i mean really... children raised by the state probably won't be better off.

 

Really it's just the sort of thing you have to live with.


Welcome to Britain.

You're *lucky* your family won't have access to those services. If welfare was such a paradise, more people would go on it. Your payment for welfare programs, in moral terms, is acknowledgement because those who are dependent on these programs could just as easily be you, but for a twist of fate.

The poor are not really getting poorer, btw, just comparatively due to upward wealth hoarding. It's the middle class that's getting crushed as the 20th century social contract is torn to threads.

The argument isn't whether welfare is a paradise because it isn't which is one reason I find it so insidious. It catches those who fall victim to its promise of a better life in its clutches. It perpetuates a cycle that recreates poverty in more ways than just monetary. As I said I grew up in pverty saw it first hand and I am "lucky" or I would say blessed in that I was able to see through it all and get away from the thought process that the world owes me a living and that I had a welfare check coming to me just because it came to my mother twice a month.

I also find it rather laughable that I am "lucky" that I have to pay for services that my family won't need. In moral terms, welfare is a program that plunders those who work and earn their money/resources to those who don't. If I want to be "moral" with my money (which I believe I am BTW because I do give as it is part of my faith) I will give to charity or DIRECTLY help those in need. Not send my resources into the black hole of a government bureaucracy for the already rich and powerful to take a cut before sending the scraps to the truely needy.

Welfare is a shell game played by con-artist politicians and doe slittle to actually help the poor. If you want to help the poor go out and help the por. Volunteer at a soup kitchen, donate clothing or food, help them get into mental health and rehab programs. Don't send your resources to a faceless unaccountable bureaucracy and call it good.

As for your last statement on the poor getting poorer that would take a whole other thread to be quite honest but I can say as a so-called middle class person ( I detest the labels as the allow for envy between those of certain income levels) I sure am being squeezed which I assume you point out as if it is a bad thing so apparently we are in total agreement then that welfare is crappy. Whether its welfare for the poor or the rich, both of which very much exsist.

 

Nowhere does the dole promise a "better" life, in the sense of something desirable. What it does is prevent abject destitution, the kind of indignity that no human should have to endure. Society as a whole does owe that much to every citizen.

Realistically, the 21st century social contract should include a negative income tax to provide a guaranteed minimum income.

Eh, i'd say it depends on the person and the dole.

I'd choose a  life with a poor livable wage and all free time over anything else really.



so anyone explained what a dole is yet
