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?
But what does applying for a job have to do with whether or not they are using drugs
while getting government money?

And where do you get the idea that people on welfare don't apply for jobs?

There are people on welfare and food stamps that work everyday.
They just work for shit money :

We've heard this stuff from politicians who lie like hell to get elected, so we have
to look at the facts to find the truth.
