Yahoo had an article on an unemployed mom. There were 4800+ comments on the article. Freepers need to read the comments. Over 90 percent had the same theme - there are very little jobs. People out of work have been looking. Most are not lazy SOB. Many ended up with part time jobs that employed them temporarily and they had to find another job after losing one. Many had 2 to 3 jobs in a 6 to 12 month period. Obamacare and economic economy is murder. Unlike the BS unemployment numbers given, US is in a deep Depression with unemployment at 15 to 20 percent. For many the issue is no longer about taking or not taking a gov handout. It is about survival. Food stamps and unemployment benefits is the modern soup line of the Great Depression. Gov cannot cut it off without social ramification. It must be done carefully and results may vary state to state. Thus blanket demand to end it all may not be a wise move by GOP.
The GOP needs to wake up. You aren’t going to counter Obama’s give away programs with Illegal Alien Amnesty, H1B Visas, and Free Trade with Communist China. You can’t counter Obama unemployment by shipping jobs out of America or giving them to Illegals
StupidNomics just gets Democrats elected. GOP needs to dump their govt programs, embrace a real free American market
