You keep on calling unemployment income a freebie when it’s not . If it was that easy to get “freebies” and living off that then most minimum wage workers would be unemployed instead of juggling 2-3 jobs for rent .
It won't make any difference when you want to remain willfully ignorant.
On what planet can someone work for 3 weeks and quit and get 600 dollar payments for a year? No facts anywhere. This is how people like Trump come to power because so many people run completely on emotions based on vengeance/hate instead of actual real facts on the ground.
It was already pointed out several times that a person has to work 20+ weeks in the base year and pay unemployment taxes in order to qualify for benefit payments. Those $600 payments only lasted 4 months, not a year like someone imagined in their head.
They are not freebies and have never been. I hope these people who have petty jealously and hatred towards earned benefits and a helping hand will decline social security "freebies" when their time comes. Those old lazy bums living off the state. Granny better to get to work. 🤪
