It's not unique to welfare, look across the public service and the various pay deals and general waste, look at the failure to invest in infrastructure and the repeated abandonment of game changing projects in favour of half assed alternatives.

He's got a lovely boat that he sails. I know a civil servant that scams an extra allowance of €150 per month from her department for an expense that's already covered by her department in a separate payment to her, "everyone does it".I've a friend who rents out his house but tenants pay separately. He claims it under the rent a room scheme so avoids tax on the first €14,000.

That's leaving out the cost of her "free" legal aid for her crime sprees, the cost of incarcerating her husband, and the future cost of supporting her children, if they follow in her footsteps. Imagine all the good those two nurses would do (not to mention the income tax they would pay). The social welfare system badly needs to be overhauled to cut out these lifelong spongers.

Half the time I have to choose between new clothes I need or food. I envy anyone capable of work and I strive to find a job I can do with the bull**** I’m dealt re headaches, depression etc. But every time I’ve applied for a job and sat an interview I get a rejection and then feel more depressed :pac:
