Officials are finalizing a bill that would offer $1,200 checks to many Americans and that would not renew the full unemployment insurance enhancement as part of a proposal for the next stimulus bill set to be unveiled Monday

The $600 extra is a tough one depending on the area of the country you live in. For example, in my state the unemployment checks per week is $440. That's $1040 a week which is more than a lot here make in a week. I think there's a solution, though. You just can't 100% axe it.

Unemployment needs to have some extra funding, maybe $600 is too much (I don't think it is, but...) but cutting that entirely is stupid

Incredible how republicans are not aware that extra unemployment benefits is part reason of why the economy isnt complete shit. I agree 600 was too much, but extra 300 wouldve been fair. Maybe they know Trump will lose and dont care leaving Biden an economy in shambles?

If it's ever going to continue, it should probably be a state by state thing. Low density states haven't been particularly affected all throughout, so they should be the ones getting back to work. High density states where the flare ups are insane should be the ones where it continues.

Apparently they aren't going to completely eliminate the extra unemployment, which is probably a good idea. I'd say an extra $100-200 would suffice. People shouldn't make a lot more than what they would at work. It's a disincentive to find a new job.

It's a disincentive to find a new job. sounds like an incentive to increase social distancing huh? not to mention if you're going to pass on a job opportunity now in the hopes you're going to get one later is a pretty short sighted plan. And this entire narrative works under the naive impression only low wage people are going on unemployment when those jobs are the ones that have been declared "essential" and are still being forced to go to work. --- If you do things right, people won't be sure that you have done anything at all.

sounds like an incentive to increase social distancing huh? I recognize not every worker going on unemployment is a lower wage employee, but it's definitely clear that many are. Sure, grocery stores and certain low wage work haven't really furloughed their employees. But the entertainment and restaurant industry certainly has. Many smaller restaurants shut down. Even the mega chain restaurants have reduced hours and also staff. Or are take out only (what do you think happened to the 15 servers on any given evening)? --- "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." - Dr Seuss ...

Even the mega chain restaurants have reduced hours and also staff. Or are take out only (what do you think happened to the 15 servers on any given evening)?nearly every restaurant i've gone to has a help wanted sign. And again, it's irrelevant. What's the worst case scenario here? a group of people who typically get fucked over by people (as this topic shows how much they are looked down on) and the government are getting a little extra money during a pandemic? yeah, i don't give a fuck and i've been employed during this entire time and earn enough I wasn't even close to receiving money from the first stimulus. People need help, help them. Bitching over how much to help them only results in more people suffering. It's not a complicated issue, global pandemic causes business to shut down unexpectly and record high unemployment rates. Help the unemployed. "we helped them too much" is a pretty weak ass stance and frankly an inhumane approach. If there's any problem with paying for it, revoke the PPP loans to companies that exploited that trash of a system that let Trump's friends get low interest loans or grants if they can fake the accounting enough. --- If you do things right, people won't be sure that you have done anything at all.
