"It went nearly that long in the 2008 Housing bubble crash, tell me why this will be different?"

President Trump v. President Obama

"No not all people whom lost jobs are lazy dolts, but free money makes it very easy to become just that. And if you haven’t read the many stories FROM EMPLOYERS of people not going back to work when offered because of the $600 a week then you choose to live life with shutters on. Sorry if I touched a nerve."

Why would a waiter go back to work for 25% of the hours and 10% of the tips? We need to completely open for returning to work to make sense. Most importantly, there's an election coming up. We lose, and we will all be sorry.

Thing is, though, is if work isn't giving you your full regular hours, you can file for partial unemployment. And if you received even a single dollar in UI for a week, you were eligible for the bonus $600 for that week.

That said, I don't know how Trump's free money is working, if certain people don't reach that $100/week threshold. I guess I'll find out in a few days, since I had my unit's AT the last few weeks, I get paid just under the max amount I can to be eligible for UI for those weeks. I think I get $11 per week for those two weeks from unemployment.
