I am a capitalist and a housing support officer. It is enough to know there is a lot of corruption in the system and that the benefits are not being well managed. As a capitalist one has to understand the system cannot be changed if you do not work in the upper echalons of society... As a capitalist I believe that there ARE people who need a financial boost since they come from lower classes (under privileged), but one had to focus on how successful they are on improving their own lives if they are capable to funtion independently. Perpetuating people on benefits just favours politicians. Exception to this are the very few people that should be permanently dependent on benefits (invalids, too elderly, mental damage people, and so on).
I am surprised by your terminology as a Housing Support Officer, no doubt working with many of the most vulnerable tenants in your Local Authority/Housing Association. "Invalids, too elderly, mental damaged people". These groups wouldnt be referred to in such ways by Housing professionals.
Bertie gave us a very balanced view of the role. Good video, thanks.
May I ask which jobs can one change after working as a senior property manager or officer with professional qualification for 20 years please?

@Ben Jarvis when I was growing up they used to refer to the mentally handicapped as spastics!
