I hate agreeing with you because it reaffirms that fact that my veiw point is heading more towards a tory view point than it used to. Given my upbringing and a brainbashing the M.Thatcher was EVIL! kind of make it hard for me to grasp, this is a personal thing rather than anything else. You are right, even if you are DaveyWavey and a slimy ol' perve :p
Yes, after working with drug users for 2 1/2 years I am very disillusioned with the concept of "sick" and "unemployed" and the fact that for some there is no point to going to work, because they would earn less than their benifits. Also those figures you quoted arnt including all the people who are not "classed" as unemployed due to living with a SO who is working. I wonder how many people that covers.
