That will be the next stop for many of these people if they have kids at home, if not then they will most likely get only food stamps. I’d say for most it is time to start looking for somewhere else to live like the low income projects.
There's a long waiting list to get into low-income housing. Many or most of the people who have been on unemployment long enough to watch their benefits expire--26 weeks to a year--have long since given up nice accommodations and have cut every expense to the bone.
Have some sympathy. This could be you.
