Welfare Recipients Too Fat To Work Get Ridiculous Benefits This story will have your blood boiling. There is now a show about obese people who claim disability benefits. Yes, apparently weight is common enough a reason to claim benefits that there is a show about it. One obese couple featured on the show even had taxpayers fund their wedding. Coombe, a woman weighing more than 320 pounds, claims that she has never had a job in her life. Beer, her husband, weighs more than 430 pounds and hasnt worked in five years. For many of those years, he has relied on caretakers to clean and dress him. Together, this couple receives more than $3,000 in government benefits. Producers followed the pair as they planned their wedding, which ended up costing taxpayers $4,500. What do you think? Do people like this need to be cut off immediately?
