Welfare cheats out there? You bet.

Folks,

Further to my recent post about a proportion of our population insisting on being allowed to suck on the proverbial social security tit ad infinitum, I do hope that this sort of exercise by the Government bears fruit.

We have all heard this before and the issue stays in the public spotlight for a short while, and then things return to a status quo. Then the sucking continues with a vengeance.

Change the welfare rules now, restructure the welfare system, put in place serious checks and balances to ensure toughness but fairness at the same time, follow through and mean it. That's the only way to ensure changed behaviours stay changed... otherwise that sucking sound will stick around for another generation.
