Default Why do I bother working for a living when...

I could just sit back spawn as many kids as I can and the tax payer picks up the bill. THEN, moan that I'm not getting a big enough house?

The family get £2,000 a month in benefits. Mr Philpott, who is unemployed, said that the council had failed him, adding: “I think the country is going down the pan.”



the only benefits they should get is 1 free bus ride to the JOB centre

" if you dont want to work!!! you should'nt get anything, Nothing is for free...
well if you work that is.

thought about this last year..
& it worked out i would have been £67.10 a Month better off being @ home with 2 kids than working for ROYAL MAIL 6 days a week.

£20 a week more.. for doing SOD all & could have helped family members with work (cash in hand) But thought against it,

I'm not sure having their foreskin chopped off will make much difference, it hasn't stopped the Jews or most of America from breeding.

Fecking Scum !!

We should stop benefits for people like that and put the £2k/month toward the NHS. How many more people are like him ? Probably enough to keep a ward or two running.

What you fail to realise is that being free means he has a right to have as many children as he wants.

Has it occured to you that he is doing a service to the country? The birth rate is falling and the population is getting older. Eventually the children will get jobs and contribute to the economy that will support the pension fund, and where else would you find people willing to flip burgers and change tyres?

Don't mean to be a snob but, half those kids will end up in jail and the others will never work because thats what they are used to. They are a drain on society and I have no sympathy for their situation.

It would be interesting to know why they think the country is "going down the pan" as 90% of the public would probably associate "going down the pan" with people like them.

And I bet the wife and g/f are FUGLY !!

my two cents

What happens when all those kids get older and there are even more old people so that we need even more younger people to be working to look after them? It's a downward spiral and needs to stop somewhere.

I wish I shared your optimism Floyd, but I have a gut feeling that the kids will be brought up to exploit the state as is currently being done. Nobody in this life is owed anything, it's a dog eat dog world and you have to earn your place in it. It's a harsh but true reality (for most of the population anyway).

Benefits should be reduced to £1 a day (or ideally nothing) after 3 months with no work. Once work is found, you have to pay back 50% of all benefits. Amen.

Of course, but the rest of us shouldn't have to pay for them.

Mmm - I wonder what the total contribution of the family will be to the public purse versus what they have taken out of it. Add in the police and prison costs and unless one of them takes over from Cherie Blair, I'll put money on them being a net drain.

The law needs to be changed. I seem to remember commenting on this some time ago. If a couple decide to have a child, then that child should be supported, in the same was as it would be today,by the state. A subsequent second child should also be supported, but at 50% of the cost to the state of the first.

ANY further child should be the sole responsibility of the parent(s) and receive no benefit whatsoever from the state.

Just my two penneth.

Scum like that should get out and get a job, any job, even if it's only stacking shelves in a supermarket but when the Government sanctions benefit payments of such large amounts what incentive has a person got to drag themselves away from Trisha or Murder,she wrote and go and work for it?
Cut off all payments and starve them out of the gene pool

Why do you think the government pay child allowance/credit? Even to working parents? It's to encourage people to have more children for the reasons stated. Get with the programme!
