Unemployment Benefits Running Out Again

A lot of people do not understand how Unemployment works. They think each time the Government extends Benefits people keep getting Unemployment. That's not true. Once a person reaches 99 weeks, they are done. The Extensions only extend the time you have to draw 99 weeks.

So, Every single week Thousands of American draw their 99th week and drop off the rolls. The Net Result is 1 less person counted as on Unemployment, who is then NOT counted as unemployed anymore either. Driving the Unemployment rate down Artificially.

That's the dirty little secret that so called "journalists" aren't reporting and a big part of the reason why the unemployment rate is going down despite millions of people still unemployed or underemployed. The real rate of unemployment currently stands at slightly over 15%.
 
Time to let the market take control of the situation. If the market cant solve the problem then its time that we as a country address the problems.

Enough pussy footing around. Enough printing dollars to prop up a failed system.

The unemployment in US is as it lowest in Obamas period. Taking back the troops from Iraq was great stimulus. If you’d take back more troops from overseas the unemplyoment will be even lower.

What does that have to do with anything? Obama is talking about firing all those troops, so they can join the ranks of the unemployed.
 
Many families have begun to withdraw from their 401K's to put food on the table. Oh Well....just another plight of what used to make up the middle class of this country.

Republicans say they aren't working hard enough.

Deano how many times must we tell you, you have to ask them if they want fries with that......

I would dig ditches in shit before I let my family go hungry..... How many years does it take to find a job? Even if you have to temporarily take one "below your station"........
 
UEB running out again eh. Well fuck it let's just give them diapers and bottles for life. Then when they get old we can give them viagra and catheters.
 
All I'm hearing today is how great the economy is doing now.....

You Libs better not push for another extension of UE bennies.
You Libs better not ask for another friggin Stimulus.
You Libs better not ask for an infrastructure plan....

The economy is good according to you guys.

That's easy to say when you're young and healthy. I can tell you will have money enough but wait till you're sitting in those waiting areas looking at old decrepit pieces of schit barely alive waiting for a doctor and ................."YOU'RE ONE OF THEM!!"
 
Thanks for the scandals, bubbles, recessions, and Great Depressions, boom and bust, cronyism/greed, deregulation, bought off Pubs! Amazing how stupid the dupes are....Don' know history, STILL believe THIS TIME Pubs aren't lying abut small gov't...

At first I thought you were talking about the federal reserve, then I realized your just doing another lazy partisan attack. What a way to obey the glowing box.

In the meantime our southern border is still unprotected and illegal immigration is encouraged. yet Washington claims no responsibility for the cheap price of labor.

There's plenty of jobs out there for people who are willing to make sacrifices.
There are people who's areas of expertise are highly competitive. Such as aviation.
There are lots of pilots out of work. I have a friend who is qualified for the left seat in aircraft as large as 15 passenger business jets. Can't find a job. So he is working on other things. The point is he is WORKING.
Many people have just stopped looking. I have another friend who used to work the city counter of a medium sized lumber company. He is NOT looking and is still collecting.
Each week, I get emails from careerbuilder.com. No fewer than 75 listings each week. And that is just the categories I listed.
There is work.
Have another friend who is in the golf industry. He was just let go. His position in the company was eliminated. he will find another similar position, but he may have to move. His priority is his family. He will do what he must. Many people reject that idea. I do not.
You do what you must.
 
The market does not attempt to solve social problems.

The market works only to solve market problems.

The market basically doesn't give a rat's ass about the people or the national economy.

Yeah and?.....
The issue is there are plenty of jobs available. Just a lot of people who are holding out for the same money they used to make. Instead of doing what they must , they do what is easiest.
People have to realize that they cannot collect unemployment benefits in perpetuity.
How many extensions have there been?....Unemployment benefits used to be 6 months. Now it's what? 150 weeks?..That's almost three years. Really?

If market forces were not being interfered with by government regulations and red tape, the economy would be in much better shape right now.

There in lies the problem. Too many people with self proclaimed "high" standards that won't take "that kind of work"..
I will admit to the fact there are many industries where jobs, fo Americans anyway, have dried up.....For example, Microsoft in this area recruits mainly Indians and Pakistanis to work at their facility here.
Why do they do this? Because those people are educated in their home countries in disciplines that Microsoft is looking for.
While American college students are majoring in such highly sought after subjects such as Greek Philosophy or theatre arts, people from other parts of the world are majoring in engineering and other sciences.

Typical angry lib nonsense.
Tell the truth or dare to have an opposing viewpoint and you people wish bad things to happen to those who dare to defy you.
Ya know what? You plant your liberalism where the sun don't shine.
 
Unemployment benefits are running out? No problem, the economy is improving anyway. Didn't you guys see the unemployment numbers today?

What, no one believes it? :confused:

Yeah...before the 2012 election most of the country will believe it.

Before the 2012 election, people will be anticipating freedom from Obama's rule
 
Great news for Obama!! He only needs to "lose" about 3 million more workers for the unemployment numbers to work out right....
