I thought they signed something after that Republican holdout. So the Dem’s are holding it up now?
The federal oligarchy wants to emphasize just how important the oligarchs are to the survival of those having tough times ... and the federal oligarchs engineered the tough times! ... And still no one is building good working guillotines
Who needs that when you have perfectly working guns and rope?
It’s not looking like it. Many, many stories on the same subject...on an Easter Sunday evening...when no one is paying attention, mind you!
I’m certain Congress will rectify this oversite as soon as they get back from their Champagne Brunch. ;)
Being self-employed and screwed out of any benefit when my work disappeared — I don’t give a s!!t.
Stop paying folks not working with my tax money.
Priceless! If the dems ignore the problem, it will go away! (Tax cuts, Mr. Obama, not handouts)
Will Michele “change the conversation” to “EAT CAKE”?
Until every job on moster.com is filled, there should be no unemployment benefits. That’ll puts 200,000 people back to work by Friday.
Ignomineous death is the only suitable end for the media scum who have transmogrified themselves into the fifth column enemy of we the people. As for politicians, pitchforks and torches are too good for the demoncrat scum.
Um, typing too fast for my old brain ... make that ‘ignominious’
The argument that unemployment benefits is causing people to not look for a job is complete bullcrap.
Have any of you ever been to a job fair lately? Hundreds and hundreds are turning in applications. There just arnt enough jobs.
And a lot of those jobs on Monster are autoposts. Meaning the companies are simply taking applications and arnt really hiring.
There are very few social programs that do a lick of good.
But cutting off unemployment insurance at a time when there are five or six jobless people for every position is downright vicious.
Surely this must be a deliberate ploy by the Left, which believes that the GOP will play its usual role as punching bag.
The government caused the problem by interfering with the free market by forcing banks to make subprime loans to the undeserving poor
By so doing, they cast millions of honest working Americans into the hell of unemployment.
Damn Congress! Damn the Left! Damn the Big Media! Damn this evil man in the White House!
“oversight”
Everyone’s a critic. Even me, LOL!

You know dat. I’ve been an employer for 30 years. That means I have had to pay in to the unemployment fund on my salary for 30 years. It also means that since I am the owner I have ALWAYS been ineligible to collect benefits.
There is no reason that unemployment benefits hae to go on for two years. As an employer I pay 11% of wages into the fund. That is money out of my pocket. The 11% rate will surely increase now that the fund is bankrupt.
But I can just raise my prices to offset the cost, right? /s
The whole thesis is we should continue unemployment benefits indefinetly. I disagree with that. They have been extended time and time again already.
I screwed up spelling in my post, too.
I don’t think our fingers can keep up with our RAGE these days, LOL! :)
You gotta start typing with two fingers again, that’ll correct most of the spelling problems! ;^)
And the media say, with a straight face, that they're not biased?
