Regular unemployment (50% and filing with the state) isn’t good enough?

——————————————
Actually it was more like 24% in my case. And state UI is only 26 weeks in most cases (some as low as 12 weeks). Some states top out at only $230 a week, regardless of how much you previously made. Vast numbers of people exhausted their benefits back in September. Whole industrial sectors have been shut down and will remain mostly shut until maybe 2022.

What’s your suggestion?
