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.
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.

So int that sense, yes, there is a new attitude.
Do you read the Daily Mail much?
While there is a hardcore never employed number on the dole to state that they're all having kids willy nilly with different partners is fairly pathetic.

You've just agreed with Joan Burton.
If that's not bad enough I agree with you as well (though I'd include all skilled people, not just professionals).
You'll start growing a beard soon
Would it make an improvement?
It just might!
Unfortunately there is going to be anarchy if the benefits of certain lowlifes get touched. The cops had better be on their game. There will be an increase in burglaries and other thefts
There should be a rule that all benefits are cut off for a period of time if you are convicted of a criminal offence.
Societies hard earned money should not go to people who dont follow the rules.
That's the other side of it. Good point. I agree with doing that. In soft old Ireland though, everyone's afraid of travellers and welfare abusers, for some strange reason
welfare abuse/fraud is a crime , being a traveller is not.
I would also state that while i abhor welfare fraud , such abhorrence does not extend to travellers nor do i fear either category.

I think the inference is that travellers 'rights' get rolled out whenever an incident occurs and people back off for fear of being labelled a bigot.
