And considering that you say you havent paid into unemployment, which further proves how much of a welfare program it is. Its taking money from someone else, giving it to you, to compensate you for failure to save up funds, in the event you were ever laid off. This is welfare.. PERIOD..

Call it what it is and move on, after all, its so cool nowadays to need welfare..
Like I said, just ignore him and maybe he'll go away. Better yet let's just do away with unemployment insurance and welfare altogether at pghquest's request. Happy now?

Default unemployment extension

Anyone would would like to help me organize a march regarding the stalling of our unemployment extension please contact me.

I live in Wayne NJ and am about to lose my home and my health insurance.

I'd always want to ignore those that point out that you are wrong also. The only funny thing is you bumped up the thread to point out to others that you were wrong..

I don't have any experience in this area but I'm willing to help any way I can. I do have a contact at NELP and if you are able to organize a date and time for a march I can probably get it posted on their site. I can also do a video on YouTube announcing the march once the plans are finalized.

I'm sorry I didn't get back to you but I think I have the H1N1 and haven't been able to do much
