Is this really how you see people on benefits?

Its actually quite a small minority that are scroungers. Pisses me off that people have this attitude actually because I was on benefits myself at one point and everyone looked down on me too...even though I was doing everything I ****ing could to get better so I could get a job :/

Does a student loan count? :spin2:

Was for a few months last year (or was it the year before? Can't even remember at this point). Most depressing thing ever walking in the Job Centre every week.

Niall 06-05-2012 08:23 PM

Not everyone but alot of them are.

You'd think there was a record high unemployment rate or something.

I'd happily take benefits if they helped me out. But I'm not currently on benefits, but a student loan is kinda one lol

GiRTh 06-05-2012 09:14 PM

Does the OP realise that state pensioners are also on benefits? Mums who get tax credits are also on benefits.

That word gets banded about as if its some kind of disease.
