WTF...?

[patentdragon]

In Today's Episode... "Mane-of-Night And The Hunter's Game", and the "Day At The Races", continue as Mane-of-Night faces the challenges of being twelfth in a field of twelve, and we get to see some more of the sights of Yafornis...

Development News... Getting back up to New Work writing speed on TDD-606, and things are starting to take shape.

In The News... Okay, here come the big welfare reforms a.k.a. Operation Punish The Unemployed...

...and oh, what's this? A clampdown on Incapacity Benefits? Yes, some "customers" are possibly working the system - all those guys with bad backs playing golf, all those "crippled" joggers...

...there are people on benefits for whom a £15,000 job is a pay cut???? £15k is £288 a week - how the hell is it possible that someone gets more than that in benefits? Fix that quick.

...people earning over £50,000 a year are entitled to benefits? WHY? They get that much money, AND they're in hardship??? What a bunch of losers.

All of a sudden, I'm seeing a lot more common sense in this policy that I previously expected. I see absolutely nothing to object to - just find me a decent full-time job, and we'll be fine.
