Since people are allowed to collect unemployment for just about ever it seems, there should be a rule added to unemployment.

If you are collecting unemployment (meaning you do not have a job), you must complete 80 hours of community service per month to continue to collect. That leaves you another 80 business hours per month to find a job.

The only way you are exempt from the community service is if you are going to school full time while collecting.

So, you are either going to benifit the community through your work, or you will benefit the community by furthering your education. win/win for all involved.

you should also have to prove that you are actively looking for work. Make photocopies of applications that you have to submit if when you are asking for your free check.

Have a minimum of 20 applications per month to continue to get unemployment. If you didnt apply for 20 job, reduce the check that they get. allow them to only collect $100 per week if you arent actively job searching.

I have a few friends who are just taking advantage of this unlimited umemployment and it is really disheartening. One girl is even making 500 per week stripping "under the table" on top of collecting her check.. from the company she was fired from (not even layed off) in May 2009. its ridiculous (I let her know that every time i see her also)
