Anyone here getting screwed by the government?

I don't mind the idea of cutting the welfare bill, but not when we have no jobs for them to go into. And what happens when they do get a job that is minimum wage and they have say 3 kids? They get housing benefit, council tax and tax credits!! So how does that help get the debt down? :doh1:

And, no doubt an increase in crime figures!

That as well ..... I think one of my lodgers is looking to take in a mass murderer or sexual predator as a lodger which is against her tenancy agreement anyway but that is what the government have told her to do with the extra bedroom :doh1:
