I don't know if anyone cares, but people who are on unemployment in the United States have to go to job seminars and provide proof of their job searches weekly. There are even job placement and job training programs available through the government. It's not as if every person on unemployment is a lazy asshole. Extensions are important for many families.
I have been lucky enough not to have to use these programs. No matter what happens to my current job market, I can cook like a motherfucker and there is always a need for that. I do have a friend who is an electrician. He has more than 15 years of experience. He hasn't been able to find a job for almost a year. He is not lazy. He is not a drug addict or a dipshit. He's an awesome guy who simply can't find a job. Yes, prisoners have better health care than he does.
I think it is sometimes easy to forget that some of these arguments occur between people who live in different countries. People in the UK had their witch trials before us, so they're way over executions, while we still dwell on it.
