Extended severance packages are also set to expire so first time unemployment claims will skyrocket in September.

I have been thinking this Rintense for a while but have no imperical data to back it up? do you? I think it is going to spike like a mad man because of this, all those rounds at Ford, GM and Chrysler from a year or so ago are now going on unemloyment, one of my buds just did so they are waves of them coming after him as well...

No one ever counts the extended packages. I know at the company where I used to work, the standard package ran out June 1st. Mine runs out Sept. 1st.

PS: when mine runs out, I'm screwed.
