There are many people who have been on that for 2 years now.
It's not an issue of "what is right for them to do"; but an issue of "Why just them?"
That's where the judge drew the line : "Why just them?"

Unemployment runs out. Those extensions are over. With unemployment you have to apply to jobs. With welfare you have to sit there and wait for your next check.
I don't care if people do drugs. I do care if they are doing them while on welfare. Get a job and afford the drugs yourself.
Unemployment insurance is just that. Insurance. It is based on what you made and paid in. Welfare is not.
How about we stop drug testing and make welfare only 40 weeks or whatever unemployment is. Will that make you happy?
