Unemployed - "This is the first time I've been financially stable in a while"

What an indictment of the past 40 years of CONservative economic policies.

Not sure what the point of these stories about people not being willing to risk their lives for Wall Street is, but if it was an attempt to convince me that people on unemployment are "lazy takers", it failed miserably.

No, the issue here, as it's been since Reagan rode into office telling us about the horrible plight of the 1% is...WE AREN'T PAYING AMERICANS ENOUGH FOR THEIR LABOR and, THE MASSIVE TAXCUTS THAT WERE SUPPOSED TO TRICKLE DOWN we're complete bullshit.

My God! This woman is unemployed during a pandemic and "it's the first time" she's felt "financially secure" in a LONG TIME??

She was able to pay off her car loan - That's good for the car company and the bank. It's good for the mechanics, the fuel companies, the local gas station.

She's able to pay her rent - that's good for the apartment manager and all their employees.

She's able to buy food - that's good for the grocery stores and all of their employees and suppliers.


But most of all... she's "financially secure for the first time in a long time"

How is this even possible in America?

How are 10's of millions not marching in the streets?


So much stupid in one post. First off, SHE is not able to pay all those things, I am!  Secondly, IF she has the money to pay her landlord now, WHY are they making it illegal to evict those who are not paying their rent?!

So DUmmie, one of those things needs to go. WHY can’t I evict a renter who is not paying me even though I’m giving them my OWN MONEY to pay me?

And how many choices underlie those years or decades of financial instability? Education choices? Lifestyle choices? Career field choices? Job behavior choices?

She spent her life bouncing from job to job,acquired no employable skills or likely got fired every few months for not showing up.
At best she was a minimum wage headache to every company.

Unemployed - "This is the first time I've been financially stable in a while", the unemployment won't cover my bills and have enough left for dope & booze.
