These are the states getting hit the hardest with job losses from the coronavirus

[Counselor706]

Georgia, Michigan and Pennsylvania are seeing surges in claims for unemployment benefits as workers and state health officials in those states struggle to strike a balance between economic wellbeing and safety from the coronavirus.

Hawaii, Kentucky, Michigan, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Nevada and Georgia have seen the most concentrated spikes in jobless claims since mid-March, when employers began to lay off droves of workers thanks to the Covid-19 outbreak.

Hard to say, but either way, someone isn't getting paid their usual paycheck.

Except the CARES Act fixed that.

You know what happens then the US is back to business and those people who were laid off because their employer shuttered his store?


They continue to get UI until the find work. UI that's equal to 100% of their prior paycheck.

So, where's the "not getting paid" part?

In CA the additional $600 a week (an additional $31,200 a year) over and above their existing benefit doesn't seem to provide an incentive for many to go back to work.

All of these states need to eliminate non-essential workers. Maybe keep a few around but the rest should be shipped out to huge storage facilities built deep under the Rocky Mountains.

The largest stockpile of such workers are Government employees. Let's start right there.

Do you lose your health benefits when you lose your job? Have regulations been put in place to extend those benefits to those that have?

Is this implied violence, counselor?

That Miles pists?* Rarely. And what does the CARES ACT encompass? The lame article you made me read didn't specify.
