[QUOTE="Deleted member 2897, post: 800796"] In Wisconsin, they currently get $670/week. It was $970 a week until a few months ago. Its still the equivalent of $17/hour right now. If you had a manual labor job and could earn $15, $20, even $23/hour versus doing nothing and making $17....an awful lot of people would take the latter. Especially considering this math is based on 40 hours a week. A job might only give you 30-35 hours and you'd have to make an even higher wage to beat the current unemployment. [/QUOTE]
