A 16% unemployment rate, 6 million people who just don't feel they need to work... Welfare run amok. This is where nanny state (the government will protect\take care of you...) socialism (why should anyone have more than me?) retardation (duuhhhh) leads societies.

And this is implicitly linked to recent stories of growing Islamification in the UK. Because the UK government is trying to pull in immigrants in DROVES. They pay into the Social Security and tax system but are forbidden from recieving any benefits from it until they plop out anchor babies. So the UK government is just barely staying ahead of the curve with immigrants, but at the rate that the muslims are propogating, soon the UK government won't be able to sustain itself, and Sharia law will become the law of the land. :(

Wake up England. Take your country back from the immigrants and the government sucklers.

That would get boring quick. I'm at college now and I HATE how much free time I have. I try to get involved as much as possible, and I am already part of student government and involved in as many events as I can, but there is a limit to how many groups you can reasonably join. Honestly, I'm looking forward to a long work week during the summer.

You need to stop thinking like somebody with ambitions and drive. Think like a used up piece of crap bum who would love nothing better than to eat chips and watch tv all day. Millions of people are like that, surely you could become one if you don't try hard enough!

Six million Britons are living in homes where no one has a job and "benefits are a way of life", a report by MPs revealed yesterday.

And they cost the taxpayer nearly £13billion a year in state handouts.
Makes no sense, that's barely over 2000 pounds/year.

The problem with welfare is once you give it, how do you take it back? You've removed people's sense of being a productive person. Do you tell them they have 6 months and then the money well dries up? What have other countries done (if any have done anything)?

Again, Britain going down the toilet as quickly as it can.

Financially, they're doing great too...

Today, British consumers owe US$2.7-trillion on credit cards, mortgages, and other consumer loans ? more than the value of all the goods and services produced by its economy in a year, according toacco untancy firm Grant Thornton.

?Personal debt exceeding Britain?s GDP is a worrying milestone in our buy-now-and-pay-later culture,? said Martin Bamford, a personal finance advisor and author in Surrey, England.

Indeed, personal debt in Britain is growing by US$1-million every twominutes, according to www.creditaction.org.uk, a nonprofit financial education group. The average household now owes an amount equal to 166% of its annual disposable income, 30% higher than in the United States.

Time to pay the piper
