  Did I say majority? Show me where I said that...
  
  The fact that a substantial minority do is indication enough.
  
  As for the rest, they may not be druggies but more often than not can still fund alcohol and cigarettes on benefits along with mobile phones and Sky. The whole point is that the more comfortable you make people on benefits the harder it is to get them off benefits and into work.
  
  I also, incidentally, am against middle class benefits too. Child benefit should be limited to the first three children, heating allowance to non-taxpaying pensioners (this with a taxable income of under £10,500) and, not to mention Child Tax credits. The latter should be phased out all together over a 5 year period. I would also phase out WTC when CTC is gone.
  
  This is where the government must focus a lot of the savings we need.
