... they have enough money not to need SocSec retirement funds??

Right?

looks like millionaires need millions in unemployment insurance, poor sons of bitches:

"According to Bloomberg News, data from the IRS shows that 2,840 households reporting at least $1 million in income on their tax returns that year also collected a total of $18.6 million in unemployment benefits in 2008. There were 806 taxpayers with incomes over $2 million and 17 with incomes in excess of $10 million collecting benefits. Data from 2009 was not available but odds are that the figures haven't changed much, given how the economy continues to struggle to rebound."

Absolutely not! You must really hate the rich. They've worked hard all their lives to make that much money, and just because they fall on some hard times doesn't mean they shouldn't be getting benefits like everyone else. How can they create jobs or hope to employ themselves without these funds? Why would you take money from the rich unemployed in such bad economic times?

You, sir, are a buffoon!

No worries. Obama and the dems have made sure that after 99 weeks those millionares won't get unemployment checks anymore.
