Gary I am the one saying that there is no 'fair' definition of 'fair' - what is fair to one person is unfair to another.
My Reply.
Because you say "there is no 'fair' definition of 'fair". That does not make it a fact.

I consider it grossly unfair that I have to work hard, pay £17k in tax for that money to be given to others to sit on their fat backsides doing nothing through the excessive benefits being paid.

I consider it grossly unfair that parents of disabled children have lost their respite care, while MPs Gold Plated pensions increase, thanks to huge taxpayer subsidies.

As for greed - without to impulse to gain, accumulate and improve your circumstances we would still be in the Stone Age. This is one of the basic drivers in life. It is what helps turn small businesses into big businesses with all the wealth and employment they provide. It is why people start businesses. It is why people (most people) work.
reply.
I 100% totally agree with you. What we agree on, is above the normal bounds of the dictates of basic survival and comfort, displayed by everyone mentioned in my post.
What we disagree on is that Greed is far beyond the dictates of normal life and basic survival and comfort.

If it was just about having what is needed for 'basic survival and comfort' then we should all give up working and be looked after by the benefits system.
reply.
You continue to be obsessed with the minority on benefits. The majority on benefits are genuine claimants and they are fighting for 'basic survival and comfort'
post.
Basic comforts are not enough for me and, I suspect, most people. If it was just about that then there would be a lot more unemployed around among those who manufacture and sell high value quality products.
Reply.
Again I agree, why should you settle for basic comforts, why should anyone? Basic comforts are not enough for our disabled, ill or elderly but most of them have no other choice.

Life would be so boring if we all adopted your idea of what life should be all about. Thankfully the human race is varied and different.
reply.
There you go with your insults again. My life or what I do in my life, is far from boring.
post.
I will tell you something else. It is no business of yours, or indeed mine, what other people are paid unless we are paying the bill through our taxes or as business owners.
reply.
I assume you are referring to the fact that I am on benefits and not paying income tax. If so, are you saying I should have no say in matters that affect my family?

Define fraud - obtaining goods or services through deceit. It is a matter of the law. I have never condoned law breaking.
reply.
Not you personally but your occupation is full of double standards and is entwined with deceit. When funds have been set aside in some fund or other, in the name of siblings and then those siblings do receive those funds, then that is deceit and probably against the law. That and other types of tax evasion are, in my opinion, just as corrupt as benefit fraud and probably more widespread.
