Have you actually looked at how much you make on unemployment? I'm in Florida and you get $275/week. The federal govt is giving an extra $600/week for 4 months.

Have you actually looked at how much you make on unemployment? I'm in Florida and you get $275/week. The federal govt is giving an extra $600/week for 4 months. So you'd be making $3500/month for 4 months before it drops to $1100/month. Also consider that you have additional expenses like health insurance if you're not employed. It's basically buying people a little bit of time to find another job before they go back to regular unemployment wages which I consider below poverty line.
