Yes that is so true for the first 26 weeks, after that it pay for by the goverment or taxpayers....so the last 73 weeks have been payed for by taxpayers.....congress just said the goverment can't afford to keep paying it...doesn't sound like the insurance companies are paying it.

Sorry just the true facts...

That may be but it's the government who let jobs go overseas. I just got tech support from the Phillipines today. I never said bennies should be extended. I'm just saying it's going to be hard and folks deserve some sympathy not condemnation. Your time will come.

I lost mine 3 weeks ago. Took the first minimum wage factory job offered to me. Honestly, until this ended, folks wouldn't even look at me for those jobs because of my work history. They actually asked me if I would work so cheap... I answered YES!!!!!!! Being without work because you used to make much more sucks.. and nobody would look at me seriously.. Even fast food, and being a pizza delivery guy..

Trust me, for almost 15 months, I looked hard.

Been there many times, even to the point I had to work two full time jobs...yes min wage jobs and on food stamps to take care of my family....Easy noooooo....I still feel any job is better than none......yes I feel bad for those that can't find jobs....but unemployment has been extended to 99 weeks.....why anymore thats what wefare is for to help people get on there feet.

My income these past years been half what i did make...now i have no mortage payment, because i pay all my life on this place, well many years. Now I pay 500.00 a month on property tax.
 
So we should pay into taxes for YEARS AND YEARS, but when we need some help we get turned down and called lazy?
Yeah... how silly of me.. i forgot how its supposed to go. Have 6 kids by 5 different men then you can get a free ride.
But, If you WORK and get laid off.(not YOUR fault)... you are a mooch that just wants to abuse the tax payers money.
Even though you WORKED and PAID into those taxes for YEARS AND YEARS.
Yes.... tax money should only go to help drug addicts and lazy slobs that dont want to WORK while they pop out kids every other year.

Trust me folks.. it DOES pay to be a drug addict with 6 kids...

Or maybe i'm just bitter, tired of trying to do the right thing and seeing "them" survive better than me.....

lol I actually doctored my birth certificate so I could take a job at 14 years old. Was able to walk/ride my bike to work....... When the IRS figured it out they shrugged (when I was 17) because in the end they didn't care, because I paid my taxes and filed my returns...

Rancher for your info my time did come many times....guess what I got thru it. I had to work 80+ hr weeks at min wage to feed my family, drove a car that broke down, tires the air was showing, so DON'T tell me I haven't been there........

To me its the same , pay unemployment or wefare still come's from the same pocket.

Redhen, yes sign up that what its for....point I was making umemployment after 26 weeks and welfare pay for from same funds...trouble i see just like on here some people think insurance company are paying unemployment, which is not true. No I see nothing wrong with those unemployed signing up on welfare untill they find work.
 
Welfare wont help people like me. We have no bio children and have a mortgage.

OOh well.. we'll survive... always have one way or the other. Time will tell what happens in these next few months. We'll see if we have to move or not...
It'd be nice if they didnt cut off unemployment though....
Thats all i'm saying..
