I can see where unemployment benefits can prolong a recession. It prolongs some tough decisions for those that try to wait it out on employers and taxpayers expense, like a lower paying job or moving. Those things would be good for the country but very difficult for the unemployed.

I think the demonization of the unemployed in this bad economy is misguided, few would give up their jobs in this climate.
