I don't have a problem with legitimate claims, but just because you might not be able to do your present job because of injury doesn't mean you can't retrain to do something else. I once met an amazing blind chap who learned to showjump - amongst other things, another blind chap who did data entry at an insurance company.
What I hate to see is some fat, lazy oaf sat on their **** getting their lifestyle funded by hard-working people who are probably worse off than the deadbeats their taxes are paying for.
It seems that the working class are being taken for a ride, work till your 70, (it's coming), pay into the system all your life, don't get ill because the drugs might be too expensive and drop dead before you start drawing any kind of pension.
