Also I don’t want my tax money to go to people who just to collect unemployment and not return to work as jobs return either.
Also no one should be paid more to stay home than to work. Plenty of stories where part timers and low hourly wage workers made more to stay home because of the added $600 fed money a week + state benefits. Business owners got loans to open back up and the employees were angered and did not want to go back to work.
