This is a structural and cultural problem.
The solution does not lie in reforming the welfare system and never will. These efforts are just window dressing - which may at most inflict hardship on a few, to the joy no doubt of the usual suspects if they hear about it, but do not a thing to address the real underlying problems.
But the Government has neither the will nor the nous to really address what needs to be addressed.
Which is sad.

Yes, this is all a bit crazy and yet again hinting at the 'Nanny State' truths that National may have hidden from us....
