I think there does need to be limitations and time limits, but at the same time I think the system should build in failsafes (for lack of a better word) in the system for when the economy is in the shitter and unemployment is high, because obtaining a job is tougher.
When things are good, have time limits
When things are bad, have the ability for the Feds to extend as the economy warrants, maybe in six month intervals.
I do also think that in the event of extensions, tighter rules should be implemented in regards to how many interviews and applications done.
Want to say on the roll, you need to work a little harder
Sounds fair to me

families should help each other out if there is a need, not the man!
Why go to work for 400 a week spend gas, wear and tear, and listen to some fat slob of a boss bitching all day, when you get 480 on Unemployment sent right to your door?
Some have been on it over 2 years.
I'm about three weeks away from graduating college and by no means am I living in need. If I had 480 a week I'd feel rich as funk! Right now my overhead is 650 per month which equals about $9 a day for food and the rest goes to rent and utilities.
480 a fuggin' week? That's absurd.
I'd add to it by having mandatory drug tests and temporary birth-control measures. You can't work? Well I can't afford for you to have children or do drugs.
$480 doesn't go very far in the real world.
I'd contribute more, the way I look at it is that I might need it one day....you never know. Can't fault people out of work through no fault of their own. I'm not saying extend it further (in total duration) I say let everyone at least get the same number of weeks, stop playing games and authorizing the extensions already promised a few weeks at a time and draw the line there.
Well wishes.
I don't want our tax dollars subsidizing poor financial decisions. If you're unemployed what do you expect the government to be paying for? Anything more than food, a roof over your head plus a little extra to keep gas in your car is asking too much.
Pit Row
If we keep making it feasible for single parents (sans widows) to live on government checks there will continue to be such.
I'm not religious, but that was true.
The richest country in the history of mankind would do better if most of the people weren't so damn greedy.
But, I'm not for giving away. A moderated (regulated) system with proper checks and balances and wouldn't be in this shithole. But, we are. "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country," would get someone run out on marxist rails.
I've supported mandatory service (civilian or military) for every able bodied American at age 18 or high school graduation. If we did that, I don't think half the issues we have today would exist.
Yes we are a greedy society txmxer, but we are also a society that is obsessed with keeping up with the Jones's, to the point of obscene debt.
How can we stress saveing for unemployment if we step in and give unlimited unemployment checks?
Did you read the article? It's not about extending the total weeks of unemployment, it's about allowing a larger window of people to take advantage of the already i-place federal extensions.
Maybe it's just bad luck, or maybe I just really suck. It's really depressing, and i feel like i let my family down every day not being able to provide for them the way i would like too. I do think there are people out there that do take advantage of the system, but there are also people that don't. If it wasn't for my wife's job, we would probably be on the street.
Well, my unemployment check is about to run out, and i pray to God i find something soon. Below is a link to my portfolio site and resume. Then maybe you could judge and see if I should be up under unemployment or not. I have also been working since i was 14, and I have paid my taxes my entire life. So, I think I deserve the check, and i'm thankful that I live in a country that does help people in bad situations. I also think greed put our country in this position. Just my my thoughts.
