The number of families raking in more than £20,000 a year in benefits has trebled since Labour came to power, figures showed yesterday.
Britain's culture of spiralling welfare dependency means 300,000 households now receive that figure or more in benefits - up from 100,000 in 1997.
A worker would have to earn £27,000 a year to take home £20,000.
The figures also showed that the number of households receiving more than £15,000 a year from the state has doubled from 600,000 to 1.2million.
Why bother trying to earn £27K when you can have it for free?
