Re: Benefit reforms.

The system is totally wrong the problem, I believe, is that to SOFTEN the UNEMPLOYMENT figures people were "put on" DISSABILITY ALLOWANCE.
I am on dissability allowance, after a heart attack in august 2004, my Cardiac Specialist says, and it's true, that I have a very complicated medical history.
I wish I was fit enough to work, but I know I'm not.
Yes I get dissability allowance but I pay half of that myself,in income tax, because I paid to 15% of my earnings to a pension scheme for the past 20 years.
Some employers do employ the requisit disabled persons, others greet them with open arms as cheap labour.
Leave the people on disability alone and get those who won't work.
On telvision last night a guy with nine children said he cannot afford to get a job because benefits were so good.
Catch the benefit cheats and make them repay what they stole.
We come then across the old adage we can't let the children suffer so we have to give the benefits.
We often you see a very young couple, with child/children, both smoking, wandering around the streets, why aren't these men at work and supporting their own children, how do they get away with it.
