The post you are reporting:
Millions, if not billions could be saved if we were able to differentiate between the feckless and the needy.
Currently, benefits are open to so many people who shouldn't be getting them. I am not and never have been, saying that all people on benefits should have their money cut, but so many are scivers, layabouts and benefit cheats that these have to be sent back to work; benefits are, or should be, for genuine cases of hardship and need; they should be a hand-up towards a better life and independance - from the State, not a hand-out to continue their lazy life-style.
In some cases, certain benefits, pensions too of course, could be increased and could afford to be increased, if we weren't so feckless in throwing money at those least entitled to it.
