"Unemployment checks are keeping people from going back back to work." REALLY?

Not that schools are closed and there is no place to leave their kids?
Not that their jobs are gone because the business is closed?

Not either one of those things at all? Just like testing creates virus cases you mean?

Examples of DUMBA**.

    Yes.  If I were unemployed making more money than I did working....I would get every week out of that UE that I could get.  There are jobs available.

    More testing finds the mild cases that we did not test for earlier.  Those who were young and told to go home and quarantine.

    Does refusing to be tested for pregnancy make one any more or less pregnant?   Only a child thinks, "if I close my eyes and can’t see it, then it doesn’t exist”.

     

    If one makes $25/hr. working, but can make $50/hr. on unemployment, there’s not much incentive to go back to work.  May as well milk that cash cow while they can.

    No one is making $50/hr on unemployment. Maybe $25 with the stimulus. And I have no problem letting them have it.   They worked or they would not qualifiy at all.  It takes about a month before it even gets started by then you have late fees etc on everything.  Finally those on the bottom got a little bit of the gravy money.  Good for them for a change.

    I used hyperbole for dramatic effect.

    I am in no way against them getting it.  I’d take it if I could.

    So you are in concert with that view? You did not address what I brought up Shuhak. Schools are closed. Who takes care of the kids? No job to go to..business is closed. Whatever. Thank you for your reply and Happy Thursday. That's what republicans insist is true. So I'm kind of shocked that so did you. Different strokes.
