Stop adding so many extensions on unemployment. People are turning down jobs, because they think it's to hard of work.

Created by D.O. on October 09, 2011

Stop extensions of unemployment. I know personally of a man that was offered a job with excellent benefits. He refused because He could stay at home, get food stamps keep collecting unemployment, get help paying his rent and electric, and get free health care, because he didn't have a job. The reason he didn't take the job that was paying apx. 16.00 hourly plus health insurance, was due to that in his opinion the job was to hard to do. He said that he could make a living drawing extensions from unemployment benefits, and other government help and be able to stay at home and not have to work. If you can keep on giving extensions in unemployment, then why can't people on disability get increases on their benefits at the beginning of each year. They need it because the cost of living is up.
