Gum posted:the ons has the state pension being 42% of welfare spending. Not more than the rest combined, but pretty close i was going off the table here https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/benefit-expenditure-and-caseload-tables-2015 which has total expenditure as £167bn and the state pension at £86bn. It also shows more is spent on the state pension for people living abroad than on JSA

Breath Ray posted:What's wrong with living abroad again? nothing but its a good demonstration of JSA not actually costing the government that much for the effort to sanction people so they don't get it

its probably easier to just talk about identity politics than liberalism all the time

no i'm saying that identity politics is generally effective which is why liberals adopt it as times change and things are more acceptable

HorseLord posted:Stalin started being Stalin, Undisputed Leader of the USSR in 1928. The war began for the USSR in 1941. That's 13 years of which pogoms could have been organised but weren't. He could have even used the war as an excuse, had he wanted. He could have span it as "Hitler is invading to get the jews, the jews have brought this on us!" and had them all rounded up and gassed right during the war. He did not. stalin had like 20m people killed you gently caress

i asked my mam about the tv license vans and she was completely convinced they were a thing because a bunch of peopel she knew were prosecuted after letting them into the house. they must have been really successful at convincing people to let them into the house edit: the kursk would never have fit in a house but all the people who died might have
