The US Senate are currently blocking an extension of unemployment benefits for long-term unemployed people. Hundreds of thousands of families ruined, divorces, people moving back in with their parents, sending kids to relatives, house foreclosures and so on. Unemployment caused by a deregulated banking system that fucked the economy. A banking system that the same US Senate has given trillions of dollars of free money to to paper over the fact that the banks are all bust. Everybody at the bottom of the pile is foreclosed and fucked and no help given to them but the guys at the top have so far seen trillions of dollars in welfare and zero prosecutions. Are you OK with that?
It won't be the first time Socialists will have attempted to RUIN New York. Rudy Giuliani had to resurrect NYC after the disastrous terms of Ed Koch and David Dinkins.

OK Kirkland, how long should people be on unemployment? For forever? Why work? Why even attempt to look for work?
