    Right next continuing to race-bait and demonize Obungo as his approval ratings head for 60 percent.

    Usually, although as I recall, at one point, some states stopped the requirement because unemployment was at a certain percentage.

    The last investigation didn't want it to be just a mistake, but that was its conclusion.

    Mine does. Don't know yet how concrete the proof needs to be.

    Not sure how unemployment works down there but how could anybody actually live off of it, or want to?

    You've presumably been employed making close to twice as much, what's the max there? It's 525 a week here.

    If I take "advantage" of the benefits, I'll make 275 a week, minus taxes. Which I think has to be a mistake. Could get a job at 8 bucks an hour to top that.

    If nothing else, it can at least cover rent or mortgage payment while you look for a new job.

    I think 99 weeks is ridiculous. At some point you need to unfortunately settle for work you never thought you would do.

    No doubt it's better than nothing but what about power, water, internet (to look for said job)?

    It's better than nothing.
    It's not supposed to be a total bailout.

    No doubt. I'll be doing that in less than 9 weeks.
