We've discussed this a lot, Steve. And I'm not certain just where we agree and disagree. The latest attempts by the federal government to help employment was the state aid passed this week. That's not for people to sit around but rather to help teachers, firefighters, police, etc., keep their jobs. And by the way continue to spend money which helps others keep their jobs.

As for unemployment insurance, I've repeatedly said I have no problem with it. All the studies I've read suggest that almost all unemployed folk are desperate to be employed. I suspect there are few just "sitting around."
