Yes, you are undoubtedly right, but the point I was making is that it is easy to make assumptions about someone who appears to be taking a huge chunk of money out of what might be seen as the community pot.
Those assumptions can be very wide of the mark.

A young man may be seen taking money via the card in the post office....it may not necessarily be his money....he may, like me, be drawing it for someone who is needy and entitled to it.
