In some cases yes. I have ploughed a shed load of money into the state, even without my family circumstances, I think I have more than earnt my right to have access to a decent welfare system.
The proposed changes will affect a few thousand, a drop in the ocean. If the Government wanted to seriously change things, they would look outside the box instead of hitting out at those that soceity looks down on anyway.
