It's similar in the US. I worked with some people similar to Dave. They didn't work out of necessity. Disability covered their basic needs.

I'm glad to hear it! You never hear about the instances where systems work and support those in need...

I mean, you're forced into permanent poverty but disability does do what it's supposed to. Sort of.
