    Rent Allowance - possible abuse of system

    ok, not to get into an argument but i worked for ten year before i fell pregnant, so i think with the taxes i paid in those ten years i deserved to live in a nice home/area rather than be shafted into a box flat because im was on social welfare payments, i also worked part time, paid ridiculus...
