Where’s that money coming from?
Payoff of Boehner not necessary. Barry’s NSA has probably dug up some goodies on Boehner which makes for great blackmail material. Probably photos of illegal activity from inside a tanning salon, and probably not a single female present. An older male OBSESSED about being tan? This is suspect even for young males, let alone older ones.
Well they have already hit the military so it can't be them, and there is no way Obama will allow aid to terrorists to be cut, NASA is already funding muslim outreach, we can't stop building mosques in foreign countries (that would be racist or sacrilegious, or something), not the Obama's vacation fund. I know lets slam the seniors again!
Kinko's.
Maybe each member of Congress should sponsor an unemployed person for us.
So, the GOP gets to back down again.
Boehner has said something has to be cut somewhere else if Pelosi wants to do it.
Sounds reasonable. This story seems to be twisting things.
Unemployment benefits are essentially a mandatory insurance policy your employer and the employee are forced to pay on your behalf. You can’t opt out. So while you are employed this is in effect coming out of YOUR paycheck.
The correct way to handle unemployment is either:
- make the coverage optional so that the employer can pay more money up front to the employee.
- Pay out all benefits in one lump sum just like any other insurance settlement with a valid claim on a loss.
If paid in a lump sum most people would have incentive to find work immediately.
