Without a doubt you have met someone who is collecting unemployment compensation for 92 weeks, while you are working your bun buns off doing the work of two people. This is the greatest rip off of our times. UC was designed to help a person for a few weeks so they could look for a job full time and not have to take a part time job or a job way beneath what they were qualified for. Being employed would make it harder to look and go on interviews. 92 weeks, give me a break. If you haven’t found a suitable job in 6 weeks… I’ve got news for you … it doesn’t exist. No company in their right mind is going to hire an overpaid, feisty union auto worker and pay them anywhere near what they were making. It’s time for them to move on and take a new job and start a new career. This applies to many in all different fields. Lets put America to work and stop paying them to sit home, or moonlight. Take a look at this article... these people are working, millions of them.

I completely agree, Bob. When we experienced a layoff in our lives 20 years ago, we had to choose between starting a new business or accepting unemployment compensation. It was a very difficult decision. However, I'm so glad we made the right decision and started our own business. It changed our lives (for the better!!) forever. I wish they would create an incentive plan to incentivize the unemployed to start their own business. Owning a small business is a great way to get on your feet, meet interesting people and build wealth. I can't overemphasize the benefits.
