  • With a fifth of every pound we pay in tax going directly to support benefit
    claimants, not everyone is happy with who gets what.Mum of 11 Heather, 37, has been branded one of Britain's biggest benefits
    scroungers. In Liverpool, newly weds Julie and Vinnie have not worked for six years.Julie
    is 44 and has six grown up children all on benefits. She does not believe that
    a job is worthwhile unless she can have £500 a week left after paying tax and
    bills. Her 38-year-old husband Vinnie does not believe that there are any jobs
    out there so doesn't even bother looking. The couple get everything they need
    paid for in benefits -- including their cable TV package. Taking into account
    the home paid for by housing benefit, their joint income on benefits is roughly
    the same as the minimum wage.Jobs in Liverpool may not be plentiful, but houses are. In areas of the city
    dominated by private landlords and low-quality housing, you can move at the
    drop of a hat and even increase your benefits if you know how to work the system.

    I don't mind helping people who need it. But when the people living off of the taxpayers have a higher standard of living than the people who work to support them, there is definitely something wrong.

      You should read what a so called career woman has been saying to me here in the comments. She has far more empathy for these people and others like them, and insists those of us who are ill and whose bodies won't work anymore after a lifetime of working that we bring it on ourselves and even those in their 80's and 90's should be working and have empathy for these people and god love them if they don't want to work that's ok. This chick has been attacking me all day. insisting I brought on my own breast cancer, and rheumatoid arthritis,and how those who are elderly or no longer able to work are drains on society and these welfare bums are not. I say she doesn't have any career like she said,and she is just another welfare whore collecting and demanding we accept and pay for the other welfare bums. Tontyanna is the name being used. I too feel sorry for the children here because they are being taught it's ok to live this way. Like I said, this Tontyanna has seemed to single me out to attack. You should some back and help me nail her/it's ass. To say it's ok to pay for bums, and those who worked all their life and are too old or too ill brought it on themselves. She's an idiot. Does she really think if we had control over aging that anyone would willingly get old? Or someone would willingly bring on serious illness like breast cancer, or autoimmune diseases like Rheumatoid Arthritis, or say, hey, take the disc's out of my spine, and the cartelidge from my knees and have it bone on bone like myself? She wouldn't answer my questions and insists anyone who gets old, or sick brings it on themselves I could use some help to put this cow in her place. I ignore her, you'll be the next she'll attack. If I ignore her, you're next on the list for attack. She needs to be taught the difference between a bum who refuses to work and someone too old or whose body will no longer allow them to work. I wonder if she thinks that way about her mother when her mother gets sick.Does she think her mother will stay 20, or that she will? Please, help me nail another welfare cow lying claiming she works. I don't know of anyone who condones being a bum,and attacks the elderly and disabled and blame us for our health problems. Some are avoidable but disc's in the spine degenerating and gone, and autoimmune diseases like RA to name one are things we bring on ourselves and make us a drain. I'm going to let everyone here know this and see who helps me. Take care and just know, I feel as you do too.

      Reminds me of my mom. Some mom's just can't be happy for their kids, especially their daughters. Sometimes moms have an unconscious sense of rivalry with their daughters because they remind them of their "best" selves which they no longer are. So, whenever a woman's daughter improves herself in any way all the mom wants to do is put them down. At least when it comes to my mom. Lost five pounds? "Oh why is your gut sticking out so much?". Get a new job "Well you're not getting healthcare". Never has anything nice to say.

    7-11 store as a cashier and was so excited when I told my mom she hit the roof because it meant that she would lose the benefits that she received for me. She was arrested the next year for writing bad checks and I found out that she had stolen me and my sisters identities and ruined our credit~she went to jail i was sent to a live in community center, got a job, worked full time, bought a car and have never been on benefits now my mother is close to 60 she's no longer attractive she's diabetic because she's fat and is living in a broken down trailer~because of her abuse of the welfare system when she was younger she can receive zero benefits now she is looking for me to support her and guess what?

I'm 75 & have been widowed now for 30 years this coming December. Life was never easy, with losing our 8-month old baby daughter, when we were in our 20's...then dealing with cancer 4 times, from my husband's tour in Vietnam, during the mid 60's...he was a career soldier then, but the cancer wound up taking his life when he was just 51 years old. Life wasn't easy, when he was in the service either, but I would not have traded being the wife of a career military man for anything...it taught me so much about life & how to get by, during hard times. I am still forever grateful for my life & all the lessons of hardship I had to learn...such an invaluable & beautiful life I have lived.♥

    So we live in Australia.. this year 2023 our 23 year old son announced he wanted to move to the uk and start his oe.. he arrived on his own on the youth mobility visa. He had paid for an air bnb room until he found work and a home. He did go with savings. We werent dumb enough to send him without money and we know if it got bad he could come home.
    He had a job within 4 days and 7 months later still there doing plumbing maintenance. Something he has never done. And he now has shared accommodation in Wimbledon. I ask him what its like in comparison to here.. he thinks food is really cheap but everything else is expensive. And he sees poverty everywhere. But he also said his boss was desperate for workers and could hardly get anyone especially locals.
    And before any one says hes gone over and stolen jobs.. hes contributing to a tax system that he has no rights to himself.. and that goes towards these benefits for those locals that didnt want to work...

HOWEVER, they are a drastic minority. Not to mention, they often bring crime with them.

    Many, many years ago I knew a girl who was left on her own after her mum passed. She had to be put into foster care at age 12 or so. She was in school full time like every other child her age, but as soon as she was legally old enough to work (16?), she found a job at a restaurant. She left the foster system by age 17 and worked 3 part time jobs just to pay rent on a small 1/1 apartment, pay utilities, and put low-quality food on the table. Three part time jobs were not enough, so once she was able to save enough for a deposit for a landline (that was all there was in those days---no mobile phones), she accepted a fourth job doing telemarketing on her hours off at home on her own phone. She lived alone, hand to mouth and never had even one child. By age 20 she met the man she would marry and married at 21. She went back to school and eventually earned two degrees. They paid for all of the tuition and books, etc. They knew how expensive it was to raise just one child and send him/her off to university, so they never had any children. She and her husband were never wealthy, but they owned their own home and travelled a little. They earned everything they ever had and never took advantage of anyone, and never broke the law or did anything that was dishonourable, disreputable, or disgraceful in their society. They were clean, quiet, good neighbours, too.
    The moral of the story is you can choose a self-respecting, worthwhile life no matter how disadvantaged you may be, or you can choose to exist like these people. I know plenty of animals that have more dignity, intelligence, and class than these people. I feel sorry for the four legged animals that have to live amongst these two legged ones. These are soulless, vacuous, trashy wastrels.

      I admire people like that. My mom had a similar life, but a bit rougher. She had jobs, never finished school, was in the foster care system and expected to be self-sufficient in her teens. She married and had me. But her life has been up and down to this day: working, marriages, divorces, job hunting, moving, saving, scrimping, paying off debt and, yes, needing a bit of help from social assistance for a couple of years until she could find a full time job. Not everyone finds success so easily and quickly. These are the people you're not seeing in these shows, the ones who are honest, hard working and just needing some help for a bit. They would never agree and I doubt the show would find them interesting enough and don't piss off everyone. That's what this show is about.

      Mark R. Yes there is a better way, it's called starting at the bottom and working your way up. It's called going to college, learning a trade, or go to any sort of technical school. Do something and be productive, don't make excuses or use the "leaders" as a scapegoat for personal problems.
      The "leaders" are not there to coddle us nor should they mandate what businesses do regarding their pay. Besides, any minimum wage job is not meant as a career, it's a starting place and a stepping stone and that's all it is. Your pay will increase in time as your skill and experience increases. Yes it sucks, but you just deal with it and make your situation better over time.
      By the way, I have no problem with welfare/benefits to people as long as they aren't abusing it and are only using it temporarily until they have found gainful employment. We all do need help sometimes, but in the end we should be self-sufficient and take pride in what we do.

    I think the government should set a child rule stating go ahead and have as many kids as you want, but only up to 2 kids will be used when calculating benefit amounts. That would put an end to having lots of kids just to get free money. And even money for 2 kids should be limited. I'd rather see the government paying child care costs for 2 kids and the mother go to work, than paying the mother not to work. Even if it cost the government more money to pay the child care it should be done to remove the excuse, "I can't work because I'm a single mom with kids." I've been a single mom with 2 little kids and guess what - I worked full time. I'm sick to death of people living off of the taxes of hard working people. Lazy, lazy, users!!!

    In the U.S. welfare benefits don't pay anything.
    I was a single mom, left by a shiftless boyfriend and I was on welfare for a few years cause my dad & his girlfriend refused to babysit while I worked. "We're not helping you. Raise your kids on welfare," they said cause they KNEW if I worked & felt good about myself that I could get out of that crappy little town & actually be somebody my kids could be proud of.
    That's actually what I eventually did. I was able to move to the Cincinnati area where I waited tables and I made killer money (averaging about $22 an hour & that was 30+ years ago). When my daughter complained cause mommy had to work, I'd just tell her, "well honey, mama doesn't HAVE to work. We can get welfare again but we'll have to send Brutus (our dog) back to the pound cause we can't afford to feed him. I can wash our clothes out in the tub again and you can forget getting new toys & coloring books on my payday." They must dole out ALOT of money in the UK Cause life on benefits in the U.S. is freaking hard!

      Firstly 👏👏Well done MarcyRaye.. I hope you're as proud of yourself as you should be.. I'm from Ireland and being really honest, I made a very conscious choice to leave employment when my son turned 6..I was a single parent, and didn't realise how much my child was missing me/missing out on when I worked. Financially we were marginally better off, but, he didn't get to go to sports and extra curricular activities.. The guilt ate at my soul. Eventually I made the choice to leave work (I was doing 70 hrs a week at the time on minimum wage work).. I don't regret it.. I was needed at home. The benefit package allowed for us to live on a smaller income but still afforded us to live securely. I do feel for American single parents.. It seems like a very difficult life with very little support. I absolutely would never have considered leaving work if I couldn't have managed on benefits.. But yep, benefits in Ireland (and the UK) are VERY much liveable on if you're contented to live on a small income. I admire your determination over the years however.. No one can take that from you ❤

      I hear you, but it also isn't your parents responsibility to raise your children either...a lot of parent do choose to do this, in order to help out their children, wanting to better themselves, but they are the lucky ones. Every woman needs to make her partner wear condoms or take birth control, if they are going to have intimacy with a man at a young age, or before they are able to stand alone, financially!! That way, you won't be left holding the bag, if the man doesn't stay around; you also won't wind up caught up in the welfare system or on unemployment. It's harder these days, than it used to be, for young people, but back in my day, the mid-late 60's, you took a part-time job, even before you graduated high school. When you graduated, you either went to college or used your high school education to start a career working somewhere...some place that offered retirement benefits, health insurance, sick & annual leave. Some companies still offer those benefits, but some don't any longer. Education will always remain the most important thing anyone can have, in order to stand alone, financially!!

Then you may be able to start looking for a better job with half a chance of at least being considered for it. I think the Mum is afraid of her daughter showing her up.
      It makes more sense in the US than in the UK not to get off welfare, because then you & your kids lose Medicaid.....and low-wage jobs almost NEVER have family medical insurance in the employment benefits package. That's at least in part because employers actually can't afford to offer it, especially very small businesses. If we would get off our collective asses in the United States and institute a basic-level "Medicare for all" program like every other country in the civilized world, people would not be so frightened to get off welfare, even to start their own small businesses.

Isn't it beautiful, though, how some of that financial independence is redistributed throughout all of society by universally available welfare benefits? You see, financial independence is really trickled down, by welfare, and is enjoyed by everyone who also works for a living by giving them the real power of telling their boss to fuck off, without forfeiting their whole life in the process.

I never took government benefits. That young lady is not independent she is dependent on the government. I was independent because I did whatever it took to not be on the government dole.

      But they need to change the definition of disability here in Ireland said there was 600,000 people disabled including drug addicts, drunks fat people and depressed people all easy to fake or become

      Scott Buckley--In the U.S. if you ask for Social Security Disability for depression you will be told to get a job. If you ask for it for being a drug addict they will laugh at you and I can't imagine anyone attempting to apply for it with that as a disability. If you lose your right arm you will be told you can work unless you're over 50.

      SFV Native That's not completely true. The good people with a true disability are the ones forced to work while others playing the system mooch until nothing is left for those who truly need it. I used to work next to a lady who's ex husband was put on benefits for the rest of his life and his child support was eliminated because he was diagnosed as an alcoholic

      Interesting because I receive SSI for COPD after working 40 years and paying my bills on my own dime. First of all SSI is not welfare. SEondly .. you are full of shit... go snort another line and cry how you need a ride to the meth clinic.

    It's disgusting to see those young girls not use their money on the kids and get nails and go shopping and do all the stuff they should be ashamed
