I thought they signed something after that Republican holdout. So the Dem’s are holding it up now?

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.

Unemployment is the pink elephant in the middle of the room ignored by elected leaders. No politician wants to remind his or her constituents that 15 million Americans are unemployed and that over 50% of state benefit plans are bankrupt.

Priceless! If the dems ignore the problem, it will go away! (Tax cuts, Mr. Obama, not handouts)

99 weeks of unemployment compensation is enough.

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.

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!

The whole thesis is we should continue unemployment benefits indefinetly. I disagree with that. They have been extended time and time again already.

So a Repub holds up the unemployment extension and the media (Zero's propoganda arm) goes nuts. Demo Congress goes on leave without extending it and all I hear from the media is chirping crickets.

And the media say, with a straight face, that they're not biased?

I am hoping there is a silver lining in this cloud and that people begin to realize this president and Congress do not care about them. Perhaps it will motivate many more people to join us in saying ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

This extending benefits cannot continue forever. King Obama and his corrupt communists Administration have totally destroyed employment with the bailout system and have done nothing to get jobs.

Age discriminatioon is just a myth, jobs being exported to India to China and Singapore are just myths spread out by those pesky Communists. It’s the Communists, I tell you. You pay (through the reduction of your salary) into the unemployment insurance fund for 30 years and you don’t deserve a penny of it, you lazy slob, say the employed wise men of FR.

In tech jobs isn’t there a requirement that the employers have to demonstrate that they cannot find candidates with particular sets of skills onshore before they can receive gummint permissions for 401B offshore visas? With the jungle of tech acronyms out there, you know wellthis ain’t hard to do! Has anyone ever seen 401B visas monkeys getting laid off? Thank you, globalist bushies!

Communist Democrats wanted total dependence/total control — Now FEED and CLOTHE your SUBJECTS you bunch of TYRANNICAL BUFFOONS!

If you need more money, STEAL IT, you bastards! Or print more, but don’t go back on your promise of “hope and change!”

You have dependent American babies to tend to.

SO GET TO IT, COMRADES!

Pitting the politics of elitism vs. the politics of envy. Neither of which is an admirable thing. I see a cat fight coming.
