    sure, this is pure fascism and democrats would 100% back this, but i just have to be the one to mention. THEY ALREADY ENDED UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS. at least they already ended the $600 that allowed the nation to barely float by during the spring.

    but congress went on fucking vacation instead of renewing it

      At least in Texas the government immediately honored Trumps dubious decree for the extra $300 lmao.

        damn, for a second i thought to myself 'wow. texas did more for poor people than most other states'. so i looked it up and this was the top texas unemployment story

        Nearly 350,000 Texans don't qualify for the extra payment because they either earned too little from the work they lost or didn't indicate on paperwork that they lost their jobs due to the pandemic.

        goddamnit texas

          oof. All unemployment is due to covid as far as I'm concerned. I'm still on call 7 days a week and usually get at least one 8 hour shift that lasts 2 hours a week.
