Business leaders “cited challenges in bringing employees back to work, including workers’ health concerns, limited access to childcare, and generous unemployment insurance benefits,” the report said.
I can support taxpayers temporarily shouldering the load for a month or two during a crisis. Allowing the lazy more tim on the tit makes no sense. Also allow more businesses to open. Now. Those that want to stay away can fuck right off. That is all.

    This was entirely predictable, in fact many on the right did predict this would happen. They were quickly drowned out by the left with claims that they didn't care about working class people. Bernie was one of the loudest voices browbeating any Republican who said that paying people more money not to work would have exactly this result.

    We were able to keep our lead employed and semi busy. I was kind of fishing for a compliment and he said he wished he had gotten unemployment like his buddy

    I'm not even sure I'd call it laziness. Why would you take less money to go back to work at a dead-end job if the government is paying you to stay home, providing you with the theoretical free time to work on building more marketable skills for future employment?

    This issue falls squarely at the feet of Congress for only having a short term solution so far. The $600 backstop ends in July regardless. Once that artificial spending is wiped out, the real economic pain begins.


    Lol at the idea that anyone making more on unemployment is taking the time to build marketable skills for future employment

    Left and right come together again. I believe in helping those most affected by our own politicians stupid irrational decisions, but when your job calls and asks you back, if you do not take it then you can fuck right off and starve.
    Seems pretty basic.

    Hello, would you like your job back?

    No.

    Ok - my next call is the Employment Security Department telling them that you refused a legitimate job offer and your benefit payments will be terminated. Are you sure that is your final answer?

    Jerking off is a marketable skill in certain industries
