Why do you find them amazing? Do you agree with the article?
My hubby and I were shocked watching local news last night. It was about Maryland or Baltimore dropping unemployment benefit.
Guess what exists?!?
“UNemployed workers Union”!!!!!
I personally don’t understand the mindset of someone accepting near poverty income level. I like to go on vacation, buy something nice from time to time. Treat my wife and kids to a nice dinner out. Unemployment checks don’t cover that.
It is NOT the coronavirus pandemic continues to bludgeon the U.S. economy.
Democrat GOVERNMENT continues to bludgeon the U.S. economy.
The unemployment boost is ending for all 50 states in September and for a few red states they have already been ended.

Catch 22 writ large.
“Around 40% of all workers could theoretically earn more while unemployed than going back to work”
They got two things entirely wrong. If they are on unemployment, they are not “workers” they are unemployed. If they are unemployed then they do not “earn” anything, they are receiving it.
So the message is, unless “working” nets you a 6 figure + salary...you’re basically a chump?
From my perspective these companies are really stupid. It hasn’t occurred to them there are millions of retired and very experienced folk willing to work part time only as they’ve already worked 25, 35 years etc, and they have no desire to work full time. Yet most jobs are still seeking full time applicants.
I find that very odd.
