Have you ever actually seen depression?

People have hijacked it for scrounging purposes. A few years ago it was a "bad back" that scroungers used. When that was rumbled everyone moved on to depression.

Real depression is a very sad sight and I wouldn't even wish it on the lying scroungers.

And you've personally assessed Dee and determined which side she falls on?

Some people cheat the system =/= Dee automatically cheated the system.

There are people who don't cheat the system therefore it stands to reason Dee doesn't cheat the system.

That's silly logic in any debate.

It is a fact. Benefit scroungers have hijacked depression and other anxiety type problems.

That doesn't mean all people with depression are faking it. And it doesn't mean all people on benefits for it are scrounging.
