When having lunch earlier I was thinking of going on a massive rant suggesting that everyone on benefits should commit serious crimes as protest against the government's reforms.
Then I realised: This is exactly what they want.
The Conservative party/government want to criminalise the poor and make it illegal to be on benefits.
They've already made it hard to apply for JSA by having an expensive phone line for everything and the proposed Universal Benefit is just more of the same.
Just as Nixon couldn't make it illegal to be against the Vietnam War so he made it harder to use marijuana.
Just as Nixon couldn't make it illegal to be black so he made it harder to use heroin.
