I know it's not nice to call people names but what about when someone really is an idiot?
And another thing...I've never been against welfare but lately I've seen some SHOCKING misuse of it, from a childhood friend of mine.
She's my age, has a 2-ish year old daughter (adorable) and holy lord is she milking the system. If I were her I'd never go back to work at all. She lives in a luxury flat...has enough money to take out phone contracts to get all the latest phones, and she spends more money on clothes than I do...and of course she doesn't have to pay for any healthcare or anything.
Her flat costs 700 pounds a month in rent.
The government gives her 690-ish a month for RENT.
And then she gets ANOTHER 600 or so for everyday things, and she also gets 200 a month from the father (she definitely gets this as it's done by CSA)
I mean, I don't wish hardship on her and her daughter buy holy hell I don't think she should be living in luxury. :
Over here there are normally designated 'council' housing that are liveable but not exactly pretty but near my house now they've built a new housing complex of brand new house to be used as council houses...WTF?!
And for some reason I dunno, the council is giving her the money to pay the rent because she's renting private property...why they haven't put her in a council house. I have no idea why...
