That actually makes them considerable tax payers themselves too in that case.
If there is an agreed entitlement that people should have why then should any govt; say how they should spend same.
That would amount to dictatorship.
Not a road I would want to go down in the UK at all.

Great post Joey, i would like to see some actual figures as well instead of the sweeping generalisations made, similar to all immigrants being on benefits when it has been proven that most immigrants pay much more into the system than they take out ..a bit off topic I know but just for comparison
