Comment on Do not cut benefits for disabled young people, dozens of UK charities urge ministers

Cutting disability support causes misery and homelessness, which is way more expensive to the state than just giving the person money.
Temporary accommodation slumlords take a huge cut, and the mental health hit of making people homeless prevents them from getting a job for up to a year or two after the change, also costing them extra in therapy etc.
Cutting welfare always costs more than spending on it. You are a moron if you thing that trying to scrounge pennies from the disadvantaged makes sense.
