I feel good about subsidising the lifestyle there people live . . . . .

They have four children, three of whom are also drawing benefits .

In addition, they have received $30,000 in special-needs grants since 2000, including $16,000 in the past two years .

Among the successful applications were grants to put new tyres on the couple's 2007 silver Chrysler saloon and to fence a swimming pool at one of several properties the family owns in Christchurch .

The couple claimed they needed to sell the property and could not do so unless the pool was properly fenced .

Recent efforts to cancel Darryl Harris' sickness benefit failed after he obtained a medical opinion stating he was addicted to cannabis .

1112677 2010-06-23 03:20:00 Yet all the pro cannabis say it's not addictive.... rob_on_guitar (4196)
1112678 2010-06-23 03:35:00 Everything (including cutting yourself) is addictive to the right (or wrong) personality type.

There is no 'chemical addiction' as there is with nicotine or opiates etc., however, psychological addiction to anything is possible.

Hmm, I wonder if they'd pay me if I could get a doctor to state that I was addicted to laying about and being idle...

Normal people who actually need assistance struggle to get anywhere with WINZ.
You have to be capable of extreme violence and then they do anything.

It's a shame.

It would be nice if we could have a legally-binding referendum on 'Should person 'x' be permanently removed from our society', or similar.

Well in the US they executed someone by firing squad. Now he was in jail - but I bet those ones had been at some point too.
