But the point I was making, JK, is that veritas wants MORE money spent on education - and seems to think if this underclass is given MORE money they will somehow be empowered to get a job !
We already spend zillions on education - yet they leave school unable to read or write (and then have to go to "college" (tech) to do their O Levels - something they should have done at school).
Also, why would the unemployed be more willing to work if we spent more money on them? They seem blissfully happy at the moment.
The "liberal" society simply hasn't worked - its just made people idle. |

Ah but the problem is, ITK, nothing is as black and white as our media and many of us like, lazily, to think it is. Many potential criminals are improved or totally reformed by education and help; the few who are not get all the attention (it's a good story!) so policy gets changed because of the coverage of the extreme negatives.
Spend millions to stop this vast army of paedophiles molesting babies everywhere! The reality is - a few perverts do not justify massive expenditure or effort - which, in turn, is removed from projects and teams actually doing good (but not on a good story).
Look at Egypt. Do the media want peace, orderly transition? No - they want riots, violence, blood, death, misery... why? Because it's a good story! |

Create a society where everyone has what they need and one that inspires people to rise above their station !!..everyone wins then. 
We've already done all that veritas - all we got in return was a bunch of illiterate idle layabouts.
How much MORE should we pay to hope they get educated ?
How much MORE should we pay to encourage them to get a job (or make themselves employable) ? |

Surprised the thugs didn't use the "he's only a pedo so that excuses our heinous behaviour" defence.
Indeed.
Did anyone read the report (yesterdays papers) where a Judge was claiming he could not jail a burglar (as the Probation service was recommending "community service"?)
Only when this underclass fully realise that a terrible fate will await them if they violate society will we see any improvement. (I understand that Hosni Mubarak is looking for a new job !)
I disagree. Waiting for the 'underclass' to realise anything is futile. All their time is spent on day to day survival whether it's legal or not.

The alternative..spend the same amount of..no even more money..on useless law and order, jails etc that means the whole syndrome is repeated over and over.
