This means that starting Monday, most of those 1.3 Million people will finally get off their lazy butts and start looking for jobs. The rest will look for other ways to loot via more permanent “entitlements.”
If you really think that they've been sitting on their butts or a year and are just now thinking, "Hey! I better look for a job!" then you really are clueless. I know quite a few people who have been unemployed for a while and not a single one of them spent any time not actively looking for work.
