Topic: How much welfare do you get?

Anonymous A started this discussion 14 years ago #22,047

I get about £150 a week (ish) for disability. How does this compare with other countries especially USA?

You're in the UK, bud. You're playing welfare on easy mode.

Dave is doing his damnedest to turn up the difficulty, though. So watch out.

They'll never stop people leeching off the system. I don't even fill out any forms, a benefit adviser from the council comes to my house and does it. Socialism - it just works.

Well no, obviously we'll always have benefits and there'll always be people who take advantage of it.

Still, he's having some impact. Mostly he's going after people on job seekers allowance, though, so you'll probably be unaffected.

No it isn't, you lazy fuck. A disability DISABLES you. REAL Autism is a disability. REAL Autism leaves you mute and confused. REAL Autism leaves you helpless. Aspergers might make you socially retarded, but at least you can communicate and be able to take care of yourself. Fuck you. You're lazy.

It disables one from socializing, therefore it is a disability.

Graph is meaningless. Everyone knows killing people makes more food available. This helps poor people, duh.
