My dad said exactly the same to me on this.

My sister went on a rant about how all claimants have messed up her life making her pay high taxes etc. Then my dad simply pointed out that the current situation on welfare is nothing new, fraud has always existed for decades etc. and that he can see right through whats going on in that they getting people fighting with each other. Fraud is almost certianly lower now than decades ago as welfare has toughened up not softened up. Now my dad has in the past moaned about people on the dole etc. so it says a lot that he came out with that.

Just about noone on DLA or IB will be above 26k and only probably if they got kids.
