Can anyone imagine being on unemployment insurance for 99 weeks? Two years! What madness. These folks aren't seriously looking for work. They are seriously avoiding work. Way to go, Congress.

the bill they just passed expires THIS JUNE!! They are already looking to pass another extension that will take it to the end of this yr, and with it another 6 months of additional benefits.....

lol, and none of them have any idea how to pay for it now, except borrow it from China.....that is why the republicans were holding it up, they wanted cuts to pay for it...but the dems and rinos said nope.....borrow it.....:mad:

Unemployment insurance is a mess in this country. It should never be used for long term job losses. It is not set up for that. It is not legal to be on unemployment and go to school to change or improve your chances for new employment. We need different systems and goals.
