There are a lot of professionals currently on the dole who do not have ten kids with several different unmarried partners and are not milking the system.
New dole recipients are pretty teed off by people like Joan Burton suggesting anyone motivated to work would view the dole as a "lifestyle choice".
Certainly the professionals on the dole don't seem to be set up to receive anything like the payments the dole scroungers are getting.
HOWEVER...
There is a growing awareness among both the new jobseekers and the employed classes that there is a hard core of 150,000 unemployed.
These people have never managed to become gainfully employed even at the height of the boom.
It is clear that there is a huge amount of scamming going on that needs to be sorted.
So int that sense, yes, there is a new attitude.
