I think that people who are in receipt of JSA should have to do work to be entitled to claim their benefit, i also think that couples with families jointly in recepit of IS should have to have one partner doing the same. I dont think that people in receipt DLA or single mothers should have to for obvious reasons, although i think they should be given the choice to. I dont see why money should be thrown at people who are capable of working but simply dont want to, it's not fair on those who have to work and pay taxes, it's not just the JSA its all that comes with it too, housing benefit, council tax benefit, free prescriptions etc etc. I think the DSS should make people in recepit of JSA do some kind of community services, since it's the communities taxes that go towards paying for all their benefits!! I think some people on JSA have no intention of seeking a job although i know lots of them really really do and i think its unfair on those that do get tarred with the same brush.
