[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 491933, member: 1607"] One of the fundamental problems with the benefits system is that those who are devious and want to play the system can obtain cash that they can spend on non-essentials. I would have thought that in our modern computerised world it would not be beyond the realms of possibility to ensure benefits are only spent on essentials, i.e. rather than cash, some type of credits for Gas/Electricity/Water/Rent/Children's clothes/formal education\training, with actual values based upon statistical averages for the postcode area that you live. Or supermarket credits for essential foodstuffs, not beer, fags Sky TV & Mobile phone contracts. etc.. Doc H. [/QUOTE]
