If you're on benefits, or in the royal family.

I have no benefits. They were stopped by a doctor enlisted by the incapacity benefits idiots. She was unqualified in my particular problem. I'm making an appeal and getting a proper specialist to look me over.
I've been surviving on my partners love and charity. It's been hard for us this last 5 months without any income from my part. There was a time when i would have been working to keep a family and a mortgage - even if it was a fiddle or two. But i just don't have it in me anymore.
By the way, this is not what i call living.

My next door neighbor hasn't hit a lick in 5 years, that I know of, and she is doing quite nicely. The tax payers even paid for her gastric bypass surgery.
Ain't Welfare wonderful???
All I want to know is how someone on a welfare income can afford a newer car than I have, weekly beauty parlor treatments and weigh 400 lbs?
I am a disabled veteran that manages to work a full time job. I don't think I could sleep at night if I was stealing like like she is.

he brother of a friend of mine has not worked regularly for about 30 years.. His last job was on a government scheme which was spent successfully avoiding work. It gets his brother and me annoyed because whilst we would not like that way of life, he is in fact little less worse off than the rest of us. He has food clothing (not new but good quality) given breakfast for free and given some bread for the rest of he day has council tax rebate and other benefits.
On a bad day I feel I was a mug for spending 45 years in work ( I actually count myself lucky in this) without a days unemployment but putting up with the inconvenience of rush hour travel, lousy canteen food, a pain the ** boss constant changes of rules ( usually after I'd carried out my side of the bargain. Yes I am a moaning old ***

Nope. Any interaction with other people can be classed as a transaction of sorts which can be classed as work. Anything you do for yourself, like brush your teeth is a job too. Paid or un-paid, life is a job.

One lives while the basic food, shelter and health provision is available. Increasingly that costs money and work is the source of these funds we need.

Just don't go to work. The government gives everything to those who don't go to work. You can then live off everyone else.

To LIVE is easy..........To LIVE well is a task......
So yes you can live without working. But it wouldn't be fun.
You would have to eat a lot of sandwiches and potted meat.
Lol.........And wear clothes from the helping hand.
Trust me ..........it wouldn't be fun
