    note most of the scumbag uprising was NOT to steal food (bar the spazz who nicked a bag of value basmati rice).... They wanted the things the "rich people" had/have.... So you give the scumbags food vouchers instead of cash and they will go stealing/dealing etc to pay for sky tv (as its the scumbag must have of course), to obtain games consoles/pc's/laptops and so on.

    I reckon petty crime would increase massively if we gave them benefits in vouchers

    Childcare tax creds are paid into bank Jack.
    You could sell the benefit vouchers to people easily-£30 morrisons voucher for £25 anyone??-you would sell them ALL day long.
    It couldnt possibly work.
    People just cant be arssed anymore,they have given up and instead turn to drinking and smoking gear which is pathetic.
    Some people need to look at real poverty,not being able to have a smartphone or plasma tv is not poverty.
    They have blamed government cuts etc but the rich stay rich,the benefits stay on benefits and its us-the working class that has the hardest job to pull the country out this sorry cesspool it has become.
    I hate this country with a passion,theres nothing "great" about britain,its a sh1thole,and an embarassment.

    Oh and a prime example how benefits vouchers ALREADY dont work-a shop run by a pakistani family in my native hull used to accept milk tokens as payment for alcohol and fags/papers.
    Nuff said.

    Wouldn't be too hard to restrict usage of vouchers to the items they were supposed to cover, and link them to some form of ID (but oh no the general public are against carrying ID cards - even though we all carry id cards for driving, banking, etc). Pretty much every shop out there has an EPOS, so they could be redeemed through that.

    Its more than doable. Stu, thats just a problem with society as a whole though, people have to accept they can't afford all life's luxuries (I can't afford a yacht, doesn't mean I just go out and take one). If petty theft goes up then meh, just lock them up for it . Might encourage them to knuckle down and earn some cash. Or not

    The cost to enforce would be obscene though i would imagine.Still could sell them by going shopping with said buyer,then taking the money once ones card were swiped etc
    Its alright the government saying "everyone has to take a test when on incapacity benefit,and anyone who fails has their benefit stopped and MUST WORK"
    Yeah......ok..........really bright idea,since there are no jobs already for those that WANT TO WORK
    The fukktards need to get a serious reality check with whats going on in the country,but then i suppose when all you see everyday is green benches and jumped up fukknuts talking babba all day then i suppose its quite easy to become detached from whats really happening here..

    Ship out all the fooking Polish coonts that have stolen all the jobs after the Labour retards let them all flow in

    That is the main reason why there are no jobs, government need to realise this

    If there hadn't been the influx there would be jobs for those who want to work but can't find a job
