I totally agree, i have a friend whose a single mother of 2 young children, has no family living near, has survived domestic violence and cancer, she is doing courses in between school hours so when her children are old enough she has the qualifications to get a job. I also have a friend who is married with 1 child. Neither work and have not worked for many years. Both are quite able to work and 1 has even been offered jobs but refuses them on the basis they are better off on benifits. I have 4 children, my husband works full time to support us and when he was off work with ill health i went to work. There are jobs around but ppl are too fussy and want money for nothing.
