Original Note:
The headline in the post is inherently misleading - welfare recipients stand to have a marginal increase in their real income (income increase less inflation), not that welfare recipients "are doing better". This implies that they have more to spend, which is untrue. https://m.independent.ie/irish-news/people-on-welfare-see-incomes-increase-by-higher-rate-than-those-in-employment-oireachtas-study-shows/a389737558.html
