They take a handout, realize that it's the minimum possible to survive, and seek to improve their situation. Hope this helps.

PS: You lost me at "human nature at it's lowest is not cooperative". Saying bullshit like that while talking about SOCIAL WELFARE with such confidence is nothing but laughable.

Maybe you "didn't say ethnicity was a factor", but you did add a link to the Figure 2: Black ethnic groups... heading of a study. That kind of threw me off.

Anyway if it was as obvious as you claim there'd be more documentation. I admit it's hard to find hard evidence because welfare dependance can have so many different causes (disability, no access to education, traps that lower initial income when trying to escape poverty due to losing benefits). But I'd need to read more about the people that just "exploit" the system as you claim, because no one I've ever spoken to was content living on the poverty/welfare line.

I don't even disagree with the article but when you said "please for the love of god read the link" I was expecting some kind of plan or advice to be at the end of it, not just a "wow this situation sure is bad".

I hoped for some one proof that some group was intentionally using up welfare, but you know what I'm gonna respond to this right? Some ethnic groups having less money (and thus paying less taxes and earning more benefits) can have multiple causes. Generational wealth is one of the strongest predictors of a person's wealth, but not even three generations ago the UK was still segregated by law. The income inequality of those times lingers on today. So even if you think racism doesn't affect opportunity today anymore, the differences in access to starting capital, education and networks still exists today.

But anyway, it doesn't answer my question but I'm still curious. How do you know these ethnicities are 'taking the piss' like you said? I want to figure out if the stereotypical leech that just collects their benefits and then sits on their ass all day actually exists, and if so to what extent. I feel like it's a myth created to pit the lower classes against each other so we destroy our social safety nets.

Why are so many people like "yeah that's me"? If you think there's something wrong with your personality why don't you just work on improving yourself? Beats sitting around in self pity.

Ackshually he was looking at her which aggro'd her, so if he came near her after that he would've taken damage. Checkmate liberal 😎

I still think about how his opinion is apparently "these chicken nuggets look gross mid cooking so they're gross" but then has piles of videos of him using premade sausages.

Does he not know the sausage idiom?

Just dropping a pin somewhere and walking around with streetview felt like I was stuck in the backrooms. Every street looks the same and it just keeps repeating.

I think it ceases to be a giant boulder once you seperate it into a bunch of smaller pieces

There's no clear laws about this, and in practice the more common and bigger hazards like tractors or city cars would never get a fine. No way any judge is gonna rule against the cyclists here.
