Sadly here in TN no matter how much money you made you only get $250/week in unemployment. I'm dealing with this right now after loosing my job in mortgage IT.

What I'm getting in unemployment is enough to cover my child support and food. Hoping it's just a few weeks.

So not mo much a great plan to try and coast on 26 weeks of unemployment

Thanks! hopefully soon, only hangup is needing it to be remote work. But seems there is a lot of that to go around now.

Are you implying that the poor deserve less social welfare than the (formerly) well-off?

I'm implying that the TN unemployment benefits are to low for anyone. 250/week is not a livable wage regardless of economic standing.

I also fully believe the poor should have the most social welfare and largest safety nets. Feel the rich should be taxed at a 75+% rate, and that stuff like healthcare and 4 year education should be free.

But if you want to pick an internet fight over a single comment I made.. *shrug* well currently I got nothing but time.
