Court Jesters and Royal Fools

People often criticise shows like Jeremy Kyle for their exploitation of the poor and vulnerable.
I tend to think the complete opposite, and liken the whole spectacle to court jesters, the royal fool and circus freak shows of years gone by. Think about it, these people help themselves to huge chunks of our earnt wealth, the least they can do is entertain us a bit for it instead of remaining faceless. In fact, everyone sponging off the state the way these guys are should have to appear on one of these shows at least once in their lifetime to help earn their money, ala Lizzie Bardsley.

How Denmark could do with shows like this, as the Working in Denmark blog shows, Denmark is blighted by an even bigger social security problem than the UK's.
