you still don't get it. we subscribe to capitalism not socialism. thus, capital must circulate not the subjective value of any morals.there is no limit to capitalism\s natural rate of unemployment. the right wing has a problem when the Poor may benefit.yes, it is simpler and less expensive than what we have now.That is utter nonsense. Not only do you want to change who is allowed to draw unemployment, you want to change how it is funded. And you call that simple?
No. Unemployment compensation stays the same and expand welfare as needed.
we don't need more welfare. we need to solve for capitalism's natural rate of unemployment on an at-will basis in our at-will employment States.
Welfare does that. It provides financial assistance without limiting it to 6 months.
By the way, the natural rate of unemployment is only meant to count those looking for a job. You do not fit that category.
I get it. You want a free ride while living with Mom.
The capital circulates fine. The programs designed to help the poor work fine. They may be poor, but, for the most part, they are eating, living indoors and have what they need. According to studies I have seen, we have roughly 550,000 homeless people. That accounts for 0.17% of the population. And most of those have mental and substance abuse problems that have to be addressed first. 99.83% of the population of this country have their basic needs taken care of. No need to revamp 2 entire systems just for that tiny percentage that has other issues that must be taken care of first.
And as for morals, which you keep bringing up, I am speaking of pure logic and reason. But the morality of thinking you should be able to sit on your ass while everyone else works is questionable.
Why should you get what you want (not need) without working? Why are you so special?
