Sen. Lindsey Graham spouted off to the Greenville (SC) News about unemployment benefits being too generous in the Coronavirus relief bill and “incentivizing” people not to work.
He either doesn’t know or is spouting pure bullshit to make it sound like people can just decide to quit their jobs and collect unemployment instead of work.
You can’t. You can only collect unemployment if you’re fired or laid off.
It did not go well when the newspaper posted about the story on its Facebook page.
In fact, there isn’t a single positive comment about Graham as people correct Graham’s misinformation about unemployment and say the one-time $1200 payment they could get is not enough to get them through this crisis.
