Proof that the welfare state is folly


If the country wasn't taxed to buggery paying for the welfare system maybe Daniel could have bought some health insurance that covered loss of earnings. Then he could have claimed that until he regained his health instead of going through the nonsense of government bureaucracy and then dying.

Or he could have chosen not to and taken the risk, as is his right to.

In short the welfare state robbed him and then killed him. Well played lefties.
