In fact, when you put it like that I think it makes it clearer just how absurd it is to cut benefits. By doing so you increase crime. By increasing crime you increase the cost of policing, the cost to society etc, thus spending any money you saved by the cuts in the first place! Barmy!


add to that the increased cost of putting in families in B&Bs because we cut housing benefit, and the additional mental and physical health costs these things will generate.

Still, at least we drive down wage bills and make the poor feel like failures, so it's alright if you're in the class of people that pays wages.
