I do however disagree with your suggestion of making those genuine claimants 'work' for their money. To suggest that those who are unwell enough to do a real job, should be employed by the state in some sort of pseudo employment, is both unworkable and totally alien to a free market economy, in my opinion.
so you would agree that those eclaiming the absurdly named job seekers allowance should be forced to earn the money they claim?
