Unfair Welfare

The new government in the UK said that because of the great debt and the economical situation in the country it is necessary to withdraw the child benefit from the families that earn more than £42,000. So far nothing wrong about it except that it will start to take place from January 2014 instead of immediately and that it should be implemented to all those who earn £60,000+ per year.

One would wonder why on Earth people earning over £80,000 a year should get child benefit in the first place, needless mentioning those who get the same amount and more every week such as footballers, celebrities, politicians etc. We can justify and accept a period of time to sort out which families won't be entitled any more and to give them some time to adjust to it, but for the rich and wealthy it is unacceptable that it's going to be implemented only in 2014, why, so that the government can still give millions of tax payer money to these people while the poor loose their jobs, their homes, their health and their benefits?

It is ludicrous and hypocritical for the government to tell us that the country has no money yet they are wasting so much in benefits to people that do not need it.
Benefits should be given to those who are in need of them not to everybody, there is so much concern about the so called scroungers on benefits but what would you call the rich and wealthy that receive child benefit or even fuel benefit?

When you know that people like Tony Blair, David Cameron, Wayne Rooney and the Beckham's, just to mention a few, receive child benefit and have been receiving it for a long time it makes you think that something is really wrong. What we are saying is that the government is helping the rich to get all they can while the poor is the one that is left to pay the bill, because the poor is the only one that actually feels the crunch when the little that he has gets taken away from him, while what is taken from the rich doesn't affect his  lifestyle because he will still have enough to do what he wants.

It is written in Matthew 13:12 and 25:29: "For whosoever has, to him shall be given and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever has not, from him shall be taken away even that he has."
We think that this bible phrase has been taken to the letter from the elite classes and authorities to execute and justify their exploitation of the poor, but this verse is not meant for material things and it's got to be read with the previous and following verses, then we can have a clear understanding of it; the thing that shall be given or taken away is the knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of Heaven and it is also written that ..."they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand."
Who has ears to hear, let him hear....
