So when they bump up unemployment by a few hundred dollars they're "confused" as to why the left wants direct relief. To them, everyone who deserves to be helped by the government is helped through unemployment. Anything else is just extras we hope will stimulate the economy.Permalink On twitter.com

If you don't qualify for unemployment, it's either because you don't need the money or you refuse to work. And society has no obligation to take care of you under those conditions. The checks weren't as profitable for businesses as we thought so why bother?Permalink On twitter.com
