Just don’t have a life until you’re sure your employer won’t fire you to hire somebody cheaper, folks! That means no sex, because your cheap, fake insurance doesn’t cover birth control.
How many weeks of unemployment should someone get? .Should that just continue indefinitely?.When does unemployment insurance really just become a form of welfare?.As usual, Luckovich is living in some surreal alternate reality where such things are never considered.
My niece’s husband had a stroke, lost his job and insurance, a month later she lost her job and health insurance. That was three years ago, he’s been unable to work,and she’s taken three different part time jobs, still no insurance, until the ACA, and she’s now signed up. Yep, all the uninsured, or under or unemployed deserve it because they’re all lazy, right!
Where I work, not one new hiree didn’t have a job when they were hired, including me. I believe people working are preferred over someone that is unemployed. It is absolutely true where I work.
CDK : "Interesting! Paying a worker not to work is good .Paying a farmer not to farm is bad.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The only farmers being paid by the government not to farm are rich already. There are members of the House who own land that the gov’t pays NOT to farmwho get amounts as much as $77,000 a year,and they have never farmed. But it’s classified as ‘farm,’ so they get paid NOT to farm it anyway.
Check out the facts before you start mouthing off.
luckovich is about as stupid and koolaid drinking as most of the left. They state that conservatives caused this? Tell me this, if the economy is so darn good and obama is soooo great, then why do you need a year and a half of unemployment benefits just to survive? Yeah, sorry lefties, it’s called a conundrum. If the economy is so wonderful and obama so great, then those people should have jobs, RIGHT?? if they don’t after a year and a half, then the economy isn’t great. Fact.
I do notice that the number of people waking up on this strip to the idiocy of the left is improving. Of course, the ones that are in lockstep with the socialist agenda and continue to extol luckovich’s virtues are probably long past reason and are rats going down with the sinking ship.
“I knew the facts probably when you were in diapers…..”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I really admire your stunning use of our language…..it certainly makes you look intelligent.
By the way, if you “knew the facts” when I was in diapers, that makes you older than 84.

First: Why would a homeless couple have a baby?
Second: You trying to tell us that welfare wouldn’t kick in? How many programs are there for mothers and infants? WIC and ADC are two of many.
It’s difficult to take a clown like Luckovich seriously. He’s nothing more than a propaganda mouthpiece for the left.

Fact: House dems voted 163 to 32 to end unemployment benefits. In the senate the dems voted 49 to 4. Facts speak louder than your cartoon propaganda.
