Shocker: Some prefer to stay unemployed because it pays better than a job

When unemployment benefits last 99 weeks, it could be argued that that IS a job. From MSNBC: For some, jobless benefits trump a job 
You know the economy has become truly screwy when it pays more to collect jobless benefits than to get an actual job.
Just another cog in the liberal machine to get the entire population dependent on the government.
The economy is so weak and jobs are so scarce that some people are finding that it isn't worth it to work. ...

About 8 million people are now collecting some form of unemployment aid, but how much they take home varies widely depending on what state they live in and how much they made previously.
The MSNBC piece then descends into anecdotalitis. Here in Oakland County, thousands in county to lose jobless benefits. The point is, a good paycheck trumps a welfare check, and that is the difference between conservative and liberal policies. In that regards, anyone notice that Obama has been an utter failure in jobs?:
