Do You Think “Drug Addicts” and “Fat People” Should Be Entitled to Incapacity Benefits?
Question by Webmaster G: Do you think “drug addicts” and “fat people” should be entitled to incapacity benefits?
I personally think that for such people, it’s a fault they brought on themselves:
(1) druggies continue to use drugs after taking that first hit…
(2) fat or obese people keep buying fatty food or eating disproportionate amounts which help keep them fat.
What do you think? Should they be allowed to claim incapacity benefits? Or is there an alternative way of thinking i.e. a way to keep blessing them with tax payers money and therefore keep their bad habits alive? The govt. already showered those bad investment bankers with tax money and they haven’t changed one bit… maybe it’s all f***ed up.
