"So what do we do with the people who can't find a job after two years?"

You're talking about unemployment insurance? Eventually, you get cut off and lose it. That's not the same as welfare. The premiums for that are taken from your employer and your paycheck. Generally, you have to have worked for two years to even be eligible.

"Benefits can be paid for a maximum of 26 weeks in most States. "

After that, we're free here in America to sleep under bridges, in homeless shelters, dumpster dive for food and play the lottery with our health. Most working people play the lottery with their health, so that really doesn't change for them.
