        It should be cut! If Young dole bludgers who make no effort to work do not deserve the hard earned taxes of those who are funding their unacceptable behavior!

        Good. Make them get a job, join the Army etc. Welfare should be for the Disabled, Veterans and Single Parents... no one else.

        I'd rather the unemployed paid something than an increase in crime. Jobless people unfortunately outnumber jobs available.

        Why would it cause Abbott pain? Believe it or not, that’s the type of thing he’d be proud of.

        Any governments not looking at reducing taxpayer burden by getting able people into work are not doing their job. What is the fuss.
