So people trying to get off benefits by setting up their own business annoy you? What would you rather? They keep claiming benefits?
The Princes Trust is not a benefit, it is a loan that must be repaid in full, albeit with a low interest rate. Personally I am happy to see that the Princes Trust offers such a service to allow people to work for themselves and not need to rely on the state to live.
Plus you have misunderstood the thread anyway. The government is not giving money to the unemployed but to the business that employs them.
It also might be worth noting that is not as easy as people seem to think to get benefits. Personally I have never claimed benefits in my life but I know people who have and the benefits agencies don't let them rest until they get a job, even cutting off benefits if they refuse work.
I didn't misunderstand the thread! -I just wanted to join the band wagon like others on this thread, and let some of my feelings rip about Benefit hoarders!!!
The word "Hoarders" is key in this post. I know there are many people on benefits that are in unfortunate circumstances and genuinely seek re- employment. I don't have a problem with that!!
BUT, I do have a problem with the thousands of people that are just too bone idle to get off their backsides and take as much money as they can. AND, believe me, there are thousands upon thousands of these people. AND, to conclude on my initial post.- I was working at a market 3 years ago, and a lad (around 20-25) was setting up his stall next to me. Got talking to me, and he had no problem bragging about his achievements. He said he had got funding from business link after being on JSA and they had bought all his stall (something I couldn't afford at the time), they had bought him a laptop, van (yes a chuffing van to get to work) and even gone to the lengths of giving him hand outs to buy warm clothes for the market. He was selling 2nd hand books, to which he said they had even given him money for his stock. Oh, but he had managed to pocket that and get the stock from his old man who was also a trader.
He stood at the market all day and sold 2 books worth a quid. He had no motivation to do anything because he told me he was only here incase they checked up on him!- He was blatantly screwing the system for all it's worth. AND this was all just after I had been refused any help at all!! I saw him at a couple of markets for a couple of months and then he vanished.- probably back to where he came from.
SO, sorry for my initial post, and maybe I should have been more specific, but my only intention from the start was to have a go at the UK's thousand of "Wastes of space". The ones that take from society and give NOTHING back (except a few 2nd hand books!). So,
for the ones that just want to suck our money from any source they can find without any positive outcome (except a few bottles of white lightening, a laptop and a van),- GET A JOB YOU LAZY SON OF A BxTCH LOSERS. (Would use stronger language, but don't want to rock the boat).
Post over!
