Is there anyone on here that really believes unemployment should be extended to 208 weeks? 99 weeks is way more than enough and that is only cause the economy is terrible that they are going for that long.

No matter how long you can collect unemployment there will always be freeloaders wanting a free ride. I have already seen it on television people collecting unemployment and not looking for a job because they make more money collecting unemployment. More than likely these are the same one's who are going to benefit from the new healthcare bill. A shame that us taxpaying citizens have to support low life trash like that. Im also thinking that some of them are spending thier money on drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes.

I guess you think its ok for someone to collect unemployment and not look for a job while collecting unemployment. Maybe you dont want to hear the truth. I am not implying that everyone is doing it.

Did people not read the part of the article about the current unemployment rate being only 4.2%?

Hope we learn something from this successful country and match them in foreign aid, immigration policies and UN contibutions. Heck let's go wild and have the UN based in Denmark. Give NYC a break and more property tax collections. We suck and need a break!

the truth is that if you're unemployed, you're going to jump thru alotta hoops to get a new(better) job than before. It's a bitch having interview after interview, only to be told you are over-qualified, or being put on the "hire" list, but they don't have the money to put you to work. After awhile you just
pick up the check they give you at UE office and try to get by till your next check.

Tim, luckily I have only had to interview once for a job , have never collected unemployment checks and I'm definitely not over-qualified for anything. After 31 years getting paid by the same company, I have just taken it upon myself to get a part-time job of giving certain racing fans on here a hard time and I think my part-time job sometimes pays off better than my real job.
