From reading through this (entire) thread.... it seems the angst from those foaming at the mouth about "their taxes" being used to pay these unemployed benefits is directly proportional to how LITTLE they make above min wage themselves (ie - I'd be surprised they're paying much if anything in actual taxes apart from SS & MC which is kind of like paying their future selves anyway).

Oh, and fwiw - we can't just "go and GET a job, ANY job" - for one to 'get' a job requires a job OFFER and trust me many unemployed APPLY over and over never to receive a response, let alone an offer.

Please tell us your "magic words" to allow them to "GET" that job.
