The economic benefits of giving people a little bit of extra money right now seem to far outweigh the opposition of more money = lazy people. Right now is not the right time to claim people getting assistance will be lazy. Even if 1% were to do that, the majority of people desperately need help right now. If we spare lives by doing the right thing and staying at home now, we don't want to turn around and loose lives due to homelessness/joblesseness/etc. Also the fact that Republican senate leaders would actively block the attempts of the house to send more stimulus payments out shows a lot about how disconnected they are with the reality of not having 100k+ in the bank to sit on. Those claiming the 1200 payment should be enough to help people support themselves for more than a month, despite many of those people not having a proper income right now. 1200 is lucky to pay one months rent and a little bit of food for most people, if even that. People need more stimulus payments if we're to get through this, the need outweighs the potential negatives there. And economically alone, you would have people who are comfortable right now sinking a lot of that money right back into the economy which is exactly what we need right now. What good is opening business going to do if no one wants to go shop there, what good is it making people go back to work if no one feels confident enough to go out and buy, or if people just don't have the ability to now. The people need help to get through this, what good is a healthy economy if so many people end up out on the streets. Going back to work right now is literally risking your life, not only do essential workers need to be paid more overall (and I hope that's a topic that comes up after all of this, but people need help to just get by right now. Businesses need people buying products/services, renters need to pay rent, car payments need to be made and utilities. We aren't asking for luxuries, we're asking for critical help so that everything can open as slowly as we need and all of this stay at home doesn't become meaningless. What point did all of this have if we're going to be pushed back out into things before it's safe? Lives are much more important than temporary economical setbacks, and if the top government had acted sooner we would have been able to handle this whole situation better and maybe we would be ready to start opening. My state? We're still seeing cases spiking up, we haven't flattened the curve, we haven't gotten to the point where more people should be out whenever they want to. What we're doing is working, but we aren't ready yet.

I've been out of a job since just before the whole quarantine started and have had absolute s t luck trying to find something new. Even though I applied for unemployment back then (think it was mid March, thanks to this pandemic and everything happening because of quarantine, my application still has not been processed. It was stuck in pending for nearly a month and then in adjudication since. Doesn't help that you get stuck waiting on hold all day long when you try and call either. Thankfully I have family that are in positions where they can afford to give me enough to cover a few bills and rent, but I've not had an income source since March, and I can't just mooch off my family forever either. If I was receiving unemployment benefits plus the extra benefits, I'd definitely be making quite a bit more than I would be working at my state's minimum wage (which is quite a bit higher than most of the country, but I'd still be looking or a job like I am now because those benefits don't last forever. I can understand the stress and concern coming from workers just choosing to keep taking unemployment instead of returning to work because of it being a higher source of income, but again those don't last forever so what'll those people do when those benefits run out? If anything, I don't think they should completely cut the extra benefits to unemployment until the country's unemployment rates go back down substantially, if anything they should reduce the amount being paid out, maybe from 600 to 400, 300, or even 200 as states move closer to fully reopening. But if they are cut, that leaves me with the question of what happens to those people in a situation like mine where their application has been stuck in some decision making period for weeks or months and they haven't been receiving those benefits when they very well could have been eligible for them? Do they receive that backlog of pay for all that time all at once, is the benefits period extended so they can receive whatever was missed due to the processing delays, or are they just completely shafted and lose out of those extra benefits if/when it's discontinued because their application wasn't processed quickly enough? As much as I'd like to think the first option would be the case, knowing how the government tends to be and how much this will and has affected the economy, I can't help but feel it'll be the latter of those three scenarios that ends up playing out.

Like you Phil, I have PKD, Currently stage 4 CKD as well and on a medication regimen that would have most people catatonic to try and manage pain. It becomes more than just a little uncomfortable for some of us. (To the point of heartbreaking judgments by doctors who can t seem to see past my race as a latina, and age. They ll ignore how progressed the disease is within me and just assume I want opioids even if I show them I already have a bottle of opioids. The lack of empathy and humanism is the medicine field is something that is rarely if at ever talked about. more to my point though, I ve been noticing over the past few months it s getting harder and harder to get my medications. Pharmacies are saying they ve run out, or their on back order because of delivery services have to be extra careful. Every month the wait gets a little longer and it s really starting to scare me. I m not even sure why. The tense anxiety I have most days because of all the insane things I see around me (news wise, usually to do with trump and just being amazed at some of the things we are actually going through as Americans in 2020) but yea it led to a cyst rupture for me and I don t know where you are with the disease but if you ve never felt it, oh man. Then the list of things that come with that and not being able to go to an Emergency Room to make sure I m not bleeding out internally (which is what happened to my father, he too had PKD as did his father. I was diagnosed at nine and I hope all is well with your family. I really wish you d talk about it and raise awareness. I ve had doctors tell me people can not feel their kidneys. Sorry this comment is all over the place. Slight TLDR something weird is going on with medications at pharmacies, afraid of not being able to get my meds in the future because covid. And you should talk to the world about Polycystic Kidney Disease. People literally suffer because for as common as it is, no one really knows. And it would mean a lot just as a fellow omg some day my kidneys are just gonna human

I was laid off at the beginning of March. Entire company pretty much was, all but a few stores closed down (local fast casual restaurant/bakery. Immediately filed for unemployment, then got a call a couple date later from a GM at another location asking if I wanted to come back and of course said yes. Limited hours, no promise of any sort of set schedule and getting cut early each day. But anything was better than the 240 AZ state benefits. Then the CARES act went through, and it made me so mad (more angry with myself) that I decided to go back to work where I did NOT feel safe, with the smallest of skeleton crews, and so much extra work. Then my pay was cut 30%. Then my hours even more. Eventually had to stay BOH because I am so afraid of getting sick due (asthma, some minor heart stuff. Made like 250- 280/week for awhile, and of course that is far too much to receive any state benefits. And thus too much to get the federal 600. I thought I was doing the right thing by going back to work and helping my team/company/friends but now it's kind of a slap to the face that I could (and SHOULD) have stayed home where it is safe. The state is opening back up now. no one is wearing masks when they come in, social distancing is a joke to everyone, and it's not possible for a bare-bones crew to have to police people while also running a store. Luckily we haven't opened for dine-in yet but it's only a matter of time!

I got covid in March, my boss needed up cutting teams when I was quarantined and told me to file for unemployment. I did. Because my boss was kind enough to give me sick pay (even though her company does not offer sick pay) it created issues with my unemployment account. An issue on your account in Indiana gives you a 21 day wait time. I sent emails and I made phone calls on my designated days for hours. 9am - 2/3pm just waiting for someone to answer. They hung up before, I've gotten disconnected, and I've had people transfer me to a line that immediately hung up. I am now working less than half of my hours, can't pay rent, barely had food coming in, and still have NO benefits not even the bonus. My friend in Sweden was surprised it is a full time job to get unemployment DURING CORONA TIME! I'm frustrated and sad my family have had to pay bills the last 3 weeks because I finally ran out of money. The stimulus check gave me enough to stock up a little food because I got covid while everyone else was stocking up. Now though my accounts are all in the negatives. I worked hard to prevent others from getting Covid. I want as many people as possible to stay home. The government needs to do better. I don't think unemployment is too much money. I think essentials should be getting bonuses too. You could hire people to do infrastructure work if they really want to work

Here is two cents on the earning more on unemployment debate: Unemployment insurance should have been tiered in a way where it paid people what their actual income was prior to being laid off. It is unfair to those who are still working when the people on unemployment are getting paid more money than them. I'm an employer at an essential business and many of my staff don't want to come back to work or only want limited hours so that they can still collect unemployment. Some of them are making the same, if not more, than some of the lower-level management team we've kept employed (because of the 600 federal addition to the state amount. That can be very unmotivating for those still working and doesn't create an incentive to go back to work for those that are laid off. The discussion around a fair minimum wage and cost of living is separate and that's what polices around minimum wage and/or UBI need to cover. That extra money to cover cost of living shouldn't just show up in the form of extra income on unemployment insurance; it is a bigger picture problem. There isn't a reason why they should be making more than the previous income when they are unemployed, even if they should be getting paid more for that job as a whole relative to cost of living.

Honestly, right before this covid mess started I had just started job hunting after quitting my last job because a fellow employee was discriminating against me for being both a muslim and a woman, lecturing me about things that I was doing wrong religiously in front of customers and all throughout my shift. My bosses told him to stop multiple times and he did not but no other actions were taken against him, and it was so stressful and humiliating to be lectured all shift that I quit. Anyway, I had applied to other grocery stores near me, but when the virus took full swing I was forced to quarantine because I have two elderly parents I was supporting, one of which is an asthmatic and the other has a severe heart condition. The first round of stimulus checks was such a relief, but honestly? My dad has already said that there's a 200 electricity bill that he hasn't paid and I don't know what I'm going to do about this month's rent. I've been doing what I can, taking art commissions online and just really trying to make some kind of living from home, but it's not easy going and I'm constantly stressed. My apartment complex was already nasty towards us with bills paid on time, I can only imagine what they'll do if we're ever late.

I am currently unemployed. I used to work at Target, but I got a job elsewhere right when lockdowns started happening. My new job dealt with elderly people, so I woke up every morning with panic attacks about whether or not I was going to be the reason an old person might be exposed to COVID, as I was a cashier during panic shopping with no safety measures yet put in place (meaning I could ve had COVID but was asymptomatic. I ended up quitting the new job, but it was too late to take back my two weeks notice at Target. Because I had voluntarily quit both places I am not eligible for unemployment benefits. I have been applying to several places everyday but finding a job right now isn t exactly easy. I had to use what little savings I did have to pay my bills. I am running out of money and my mental health has taken a drastic decline. Everything feels like a catastrophe, and I have very little hope for my own future. I m sure there are others that are in worse situations, so I try to remind myself I have a fantastic support system. It s just hard trying to get through this with very sensitive mental health.

People earning more on unemployment and senators or whoever are worried it's gonna create a bunch of lazy people, they may be seen as lazy but the problem is with employers not paying a liveable wage. Same with Aus, there are people even on welfare who get bugger all and they're like, do I put this money towards bills, food, medication etc and this coronavirus supplement is just teasing people, some people can have multiple jobs, be on welfare, be a multi income household and still make bugger all. People wanna work, lets just ignore the 'rona, employers don't pay staff enough. We have a minimum wage but employers pay the lowest they can legally get away with and they hire people casually so they're not entitled to benefits, or they do dodgy things like paying in cash, scheduling your shifts no less than 11 hours apart so they don't have to pay over time, the list goes on really. Don't be mad at the dole bludgers be mad at the companies who take advantage of employees who don't pay a liveable wage
