British couple with 4 kids gets $85K a year on top of child benefits

A British paper recently ran a story about a couple with 4 kids who were getting welfare benefits of $85,000 a year on top of income support and child benefits.

If that seems a bit high to you, just wait:  If you think those numbers aren't coming here you're naive. 

When the Brits started their welfare system, they didn't think this would happen either.  At least not this soon.

Isn't it predictable how gummint programs and benefits always grow.
