Does unemployment insurance increase unemployment by 2% or .1% I don't claim to know, but people are more likely to delay taking a job that pays much less than their previous job, if they can get unemployment insurance.

So what? It's not the reason we suddenly have 10% unemployment when only a couple of years ago we were at 5%. Why make it an issue as a couple of republican politicians recently have? I'll tell you why...because there are always cynical receptive folks out there ready to embrace these notions to feed their negative addiction. It's very easy to seduce people with cynicism. Ask rush, glenn and the many others who make a living doing it.
