Gotta love the nanny state


I'm the dude!

I read this little story this morning and I just about spat my coffee through my nose. Check out the attitude of this British family, where no one has had a job in THREE generations. Three whole generations that have been raised on welfare.

Their attitude is disgusting.

All ten members of the clan share a council house and live off benefits amounting to around £32,000 a year. And very happy they are, too.

Matriarch is grandmother Sue McFadden, 54. "Our neighbours are so snobby - they call us the "Shameless" family and say that we ought to go out to work. But how can we work when we have all these children to look after?


"The only problem is," she says without a hint of irony, "that we're living in a three-bedroom council house, which is ridiculous.

"I'm asking the council for a ten-bedroom home for all of us. We need more space. It's awful sometimes when all the children are squabbling. Still, we do have a big TV with Sky, but we need some relaxation."


What leeches! But here is the more startling statistic:

But the really disturbing aspect of the McFaddens' lifestyle is that they are far from alone. Six million Britons are living in homes where no one has a job and "benefits are a way of life", according to a report by MPs. Shock figures also revealed that 20,000 households in Britain are pocketing more than £30,000 a year in state benefits.

With thousands of children growing up in families where their parents and grandparents have never worked, a senior government adviser warned this week of a "terrible legacy" of youngsters who had no expectation of ever getting a job.


Typical liberalism. And we the hard-working folk have to pick up the tab for these scofflaws, generation after generation? I think not. This disgusts me. But hey, when people are given an easy way out, they'll usually take it. Who cares if you're using the government to steal for you to support your life of indolence? What happens when Atlas shrugs and says no more?

It's stories like these that make it not surprising that Britain, once the world's premier power, is just now a second-rate country that spends billions upon billions of pounds on supporting worthless, lazy good-for-nothing pieces of excrement like these. They withdrew east of the Suez, thus ending the British Empire, and replaced it with a cradle-to-grave welfare state that creates a dependent underclass of human debris like these folks.

Scroll down and check out the comments at the end of the story. I'm not the only person who views this family of parasites this way:

No wonder this country is in such a shambles with people like this leeching of the hard-working taxpayers. Think of all the money that could be better spent on the NHS, education or care for the elderly if we weren't throwing it at these lazy, useless scroungers. Makes me sick!

And they wonder why England going to the dogs !

It's funny that these groups of welfare parasites would create similar cultures. In the U.S., you have the gangsta culture that encourages violence, misogyny, drug use and crime. Not to mention the idiotic trends of ghost riding and dubs, which then gave us rent-a-rims. On the white side, you've got the white trash lifestyle of meth, trailers, jacked-up pick-em-up trucks and violence.

In England, it's called the Chav culture and it is similar:
  • Habitual, willing, unemployment,
  • Truancy (if of school age)
  • Underage sexual activity, particularly if resulting in underage pregnancies,
  • Promiscuity and children conceived in casual relationships,
  • Assault or incitement to violence, including so called Happy slapping and co-ordinated intimidation.
  • Theft,
  • Criminal Vandalism,
  • Profoundly hubristic behavior including queue jumping, and enhanced sense of entitlement.
  • Public Nuisance, in particular spitting, shouting or playing loud music on the street or on public transport.
Read the rest here.

This is what we sow when we are forced to support those who would not support themselves. Generations upon generations of folks with their hands out. Disgusting.

And politicians on the left pander to these folks with promises of more handouts from your hard-earned tax dollars. Vote for me and you'll get more free goodies taken from the evil rich. Gotta love liberals.
