I'd rather see some sort of back to work incentive. I was laid off and had to find a new job. Started 3 weeks ago and have been making $180 less per week by working 45 hours at my new job than I was when I was getting unemployment. Plus we've had to pay $150/week for childcare now that my wife and I are both working again. But I'd still rather have a secure job now than be looking for work a month from now. Going to get competitive real quick. Ridiculous why should they give a bonus to go back to work when they already gave a bonus to not work. Give the bonus to those that stayed working instead of just calling them heros

Haven’t stopped working through any of this. They had me teaching online and my pool/hot tub business never stopped for a minute. And, I’m watching guys on unemployment make a killing for doing nothing while we’re busting our butt to keep the lights on. Makes no sense to me. These stimulus checks are nice in terms of helping out but in the end, the damage they’re going to do in the long run will be extremely difficult to recover from. They need to look at a much larger picture.
I keep desperately hoping that one day someone will call me "Sir" without adding "please calm down" or "you're causing a scene."

If they want to buy votes then cut the scat Pay at the voting booth instead of candidates just one button for rep. or dems. and a screen showing their bids

I'd rather see some sort of back to work incentive. Anybody remember when they used a paycheck as incentive to work? That must've been before the days of unemployment paying 25% more than what someone could make at a decent paying job.

They tried workfare here instead of welfare.
They all went off hurt on workers comp within a week.Much more expensive to the taxpayer.
It was scrapped.All the lazy lumps back on the dole.

I sure am curious how people are making more on unemployment than actually working. I have been very fortunate and only filed a very few times for very short duration 15-20 years ago. It was nice to still have something coming in but I sure wasn't making more and couldn't wait to get back to work.
I just looked at Wisconsin' DWD and the benefits are 4% of the total quarter wages. So if you're making $60k annually that is $15k quarterly. 4% of that is $600 weekly on unemployment compared to $900 weekly if you were still working. That $600 is well above the maximum benefit of $370. I can't imagine being working age and having to take care of a family and all the bills that come with this phase of life only bringing in $370 weekly. That 370 a week is gravy-their housing food and kids is likely covered as well.

I sure am curious how people are making more on unemployment than actually working. Before I was laid off I was making around $21/hr, about $760/week after taxes, etc. My UI benefits were $370/week from the state plus the $600 federal money, or $824/week after tax withholdings. Now I'm working for $16/hr. But at least I'm working.

Maybe a person should see if J.G. Wentworth would advance ya on second stimulus?? My guess they'd have their fingers on the pulse of that. LMAO!
