The last paragraph in that article is the most important. Investing in health services is a way of getting more people back to work.For sure some take the piss out of the system, many more are crippled by it. Universal Basic Income would also solve most of the issues Sunak is referring to, and probably at a huge cost benefit.
Not as black and white as you suggest. Mainly it's because the system is unintelligently managed as most aspects of benefits and social care are. Sunak's daily mail rhetoric shows his level.
