New benefit system

Sorry for no post yesterday everyone, had work until 9pm and just fell asleep, so, sorry.

Anyway, news for today is the Chancellor George Osborne has confirmed there will be a major overhaul of the benefits system.

Although it's been confirmed, no facts about the overhaul has been posted, most likely to be described during the Conservative annual conference.

Osborne had already planned to make major cuts to the benefit area of the budget, as well as this new overhaul being to tackle 'long term users' of unemployment benefits, who could go to work but are to lazy, I can only assume he's going to add stringent requirements for unemployment benefits.

Anyway, I wont keep you to long, so that'll be it for today

TL;DR Osborne's making more cuts so lazy people can't leech from the system.

VERIFIED

  12. any welfare system becomes unmanagable over an extended period of time. And the worst part is that it is essentially run as a pyramid scheme.
