Many people living on government allowances had been paid too much. Instead of admitting their mistake government officials decided to retrieve the money and sue for fraud.
The result is that many people struggling with poverty had to repay a lot of money, pay for their legal defense and pay fines. Because they had been labeled fraudulent they could often not reapply to any government allowance. Children were taken away from their ‘criminal parents’ and many of them burnt out, relapsed into previous psychological illness or had to live in poverty for years.
It is lazy to blame this on the software. Nobody bothered to check their story or owned up for there mistake.
