as for people having their benefits abruptly taken away-they had been extended to a previously unheard of 99 weeks of unemployment benefits. 5 weeks short of two years! that is also unsustainable.

So is life without food.
Our government has always extended unemployment benefits during times of historic economic hardship. Except for now.
This is the first time in our American history those benefits have been cut off with this level of unemployment.
Thank you GOP.

i have people coming and applying, who have been off work for months upon months. they readily concede they saw no reason to seriously job search, as they had easy money flowing in-their words, not mine.

If it's simply laziness keeping the current unemployment numbers at 10%, then the hundreds of thousands of unemployed who just had their benefits cut off will go out and get jobs immediately. We can expect the unemployment numbers to quickly fall to the usual baseline within a couple of weeks, I guess.
