you obviously are angry and not fully understanding what i wrote
1, i didnt talk down to you in anyway as if you were stupid
2, did i not state that there are genuine cases, so at no point did i presume to know more than anyones doctor(especially because i was talking in the general term, and wouldnt dream of singling anyone out)
3, you used the same argument as i had picked up on ie "worked all their life", because you are not a stupid person, i know that you will understand the economics of the NI contributions, and the money that we pay in today isnt saved away for when we are ill, it is used today, in 30 years time when i claim my state pension(if it still exist), the money i will be drawing wont be the money i have paid in, it will be the money that the then current workforce will be paying in, so its an invalid argument, to say "worked all of their lives" the money has already gone.
4, surely you dont condone a flawed system that is being played by malingerers?
5, over the top? your opinion, what i suggest is a solution to the problem, so instead of taking my comments personally (which they were not intended) why not give a solution of your own, which is not as "over the top"
