I'd judge each person separately. Of course some people fall on hard times and work their ass off to get off benefits asap and I fully respect those people for getting out of a bad situation. I don't understand people who are long term unemployed, it is not that hard to get a minimum wage job doing crappy shift work and I would always want to be working, even in a shitty job, over being on benefits. I would really judge anyone who has a lot of kids and so on as I think it's really selfish to be claiming loads of benefits which were avoidable because you fancied having another baby, if you want to do everything you want in life get a job and pay for it yourself, don't use people's hard earned taxes to fund an unnecessary lifestyle.
