I don’t think the cost of providing UC checks is 90%, although it is a lot.

State unemployment taxes go strictly for the checks, the federal unemployment levy goes for the administration of the program.

How about cutting the pay 50% for all the government bureaucrats making over $200K/yr, which is "rich" according to 0bama.

Then they could pay the people who really need the help.

I am a volunteer triage interviewer at a local food/clothing bank. In this job I gather info from an applicant and determine how the bank can best help them.

In the series of question that I ask one is, “Are you working?” It used to upset me when the person would say, “I don’t have to work, I get a government check.” Now I get upset when they say, “I don’t have to work, I’m on unemployment. I want to say, “Enjoy my tax dollars you leech.”

I sincerely hope the unemployment benefits are not extended. It provides an too-easy reason to not look for work. Unemployment has become the new welfare.

The JACKASS party are nothing without the slaves that empower them. Nothing has changed in 150+ years. The DUmocrats are the party of SLAVERY, SEDITION (against the Constitution), SUBVERSION (of law), SOCIALISM (for free citizens) and SURRENDER (to America’s enemies).
