Tell that to Joe.
the connection between supplemental UI and people not returning to work is pure folklore
Tell that to Joe.
that conversation is bull . the connection between supplemental UI and people not returning to work in hospitality is pure folklore.
Yet Joe is threatening people that if they get offered a job they need to take it, or else.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-...eturn-to-work/And, the President and the Administration will reaffirm the basic rules of the unemployment insurance (UI) program. Anyone receiving UI who is offered a suitable job must take it or lose their UI benefits. A core purpose of the UI program is helping workers get back to work, and UI provides laid-off workers with temporary assistance to help pay bills and relieve hardship. By reaffirming these rules and purposes, the Administration will ensure that the UI program continues to support workers and facilitate hiring.
normality theater, I don't answer for Joe.
A democrat president and a bunch of republican governors all acting as if they share the same concern feels different than normality theater.
That's pretty much how UI works at any time. Not a threat so much as a description.
actually, bipartisanship is optimal for normality theater.
you show the bosses you care by punching poor, sick, disabled and just plain unlucky people in the mouth, in unison.
Texas if Greg got wasn't Gov:

“The lion’s share of the program’s tax bounty — 60 percent — goes to refineries, chemical plants, liquified natural gas facilities, and other fossil-fuel projects concentrated along the Gulf Coast,” the Texas Observerrecently reported. “Oil and gas giants that have long bossed Texas, like Exxon Mobil, Chevron Phillips, Dow Chemical, and Enterprise Products Partners, have each saved hundreds of millions in property taxes thanks to Chapter 313.”
The fossil fuel industry is not the only beneficiary of the program: Chapter 313 is slated to funnel tens of millions of dollars to Tesla, which is owned by the world’s second wealthiest man, Elon Musk.
Proponents of the tax subsidy program have argued that it creates jobs. But a recent Houston Chronicle investigation found that the program “now costs more than $1.1 million in tax breaks per new job” and reported that “by any metric, costs are rising — and there’s no telling how high they’ll go.” The newspaper also reported that “at least 30 companies failed to fulfill their job-creation promises since 2019 but faced no repercussions.”
Hundreds of PPP Loans Went to Fake Farms in Absurd Places
An online lending platform called Kabbage sent
378 pandemic loans worth $7 million to fake companies (mostly farms)
with names like “Deely Nuts” and “Beefy King.”

Kabbage collected fees for defrauding taxpayers.
Not quite in unison. Joe wants to "punch" them in September, Abbott and his fellow republican governors would like to do it a couple of months before that.
I thank coyotes_geek for correcting the timeline, the result is roughly the same.
... but Federal $100Ms, costing TX nothing, for the unemployed are stopped
it's weird how the more local it gets, the more politics posters get turned off.
the TX lege only comes around every two years, it's not like there are a lack of juicy topics this time around. but no, very light posting.
Adelson's wife trying to get her filthy hands in our market should be news but nobodies saying
Whats this about?
There's a push to get casinos legalized here being funder by her, they were astroturfing it as this amazing job creation bull , the oklahoma/LA gambling lobbyists paid off the right people so it dies, sucks that it's also tied to legalizing sports gambling though, I'm for that. They're trying to get it on the ballot and then will probably astroturf the out of it
https://www.texastribune.org/2021/05...lature-defeat/
the casino died again.

Gave 500k to abbot and spent like 4mil on lobbyists. Like i said OK probably already had their guys paid up
