  I wonder how her benefit compared with the Queen's tax savings.

    @zoowar In Germany in the 90s, tax evasion was equivalent to state budged deficit. Ratio of social fraud to tax fraud was 1:9. Alas there are no most recent numbers available. The German Job Center regime too can sanction to zero. We have shit, but not such shit with the Disabled. They are not allowed to accumulate personal fortune, no matter how much they earn.
