Unemployment insurance keeps some people from looking for jobs.

The most foolish thing our government can do is extend unemployment benefits for more time. With 10 percent of the USA unemployed, you may think that extending unemployment benafits for an extra 6 months is a good thing and the only way to help the people who are “suffering”
Well that idea is completely false. If somebody loses a job, the suffering occurs in the first weeks or months. It’s the psychological impact of not having a job that hurts us. But after a few weeks pass, most people overcome the initial depression. Now they can go out and fix up their resumes and get themselves out, early in the morning to look for a new job.
Oh and don’t think that the only place to look for jobs is on the internet. That is completly untrue. You can go around door to door and give real people your resume. This actually will show some employers that you are not lazy.
Well then why is it that so many people go for months without finding a job. Is the economy really that bad? I know many companies that are hiring today, I see many job postings on all of the career websites, but nobody seems to find those jobs until their unemployment compensation runs out.
Oh and I know this to be true from my past experience. I remember that I told all of my recruiters not to call me unless the jobs paid well over $15 per hour. Anything less and it was not worth it, because my net paycheck after taxes would be the same as my unemployment check.
I also know so many friends and relatives who also tell me the same thing. For some being unemployed is a good thing. It gives people more time to study, work side jobs for cash and without having to pay taxes. They are all just waiting for their benefits to run out and then they will have a real reason to look for a new job.
I even have a friend who told me last month that now he was just now going to start looking for work, because he had just received his last unemployment check. Well now guess what: He just called me 2 days ago and now he has found a job. It only took him 2 weeks to find it. He is only sad that he will only make $14 per hour and he was getting more money while he was unemployed.
40% Under Employment Americas real biggest problem.

Our economy is being affected by 2 major problems. One is the housing crisis, which covers everything from loss of credit to foreclosures, loss of home equity that people can use to borrow and spend. This generally means less people can afford to do home improvements, or buy home appliances or cars.
Well with that said, this also leads to the second major problem which is underemployment. I can already see based upon my own experience that certain professions like handymen and car salesmen are effected by our first problem, yet they may never file for unemployment. They are just under employed. What actually is happening right now is that there are about 10 percent national unemployment and 40 percent more are underemployed.
I can also say that I myself am underemployed, I have taken a pay cut but I still remain working at my same job and I refuse to slack off. I am forced to go out and pursue side job every weekend but I do it and I pay my bills. This is a major problem that I wish our big government would realize and it really hurts us all.
Underemployment is a much bigger problem than unemployment.
If we only had a problem with unemployment, things would not be so bad. I know it’s tough to be unemployed, because I have been in that position myself. After a few weeks it can make you feel tired and less enthusiastic about looking for a new job, but you have to do it.
Now I can also say that some people who are unemployed are not even looking for a new job. Especially if you are single and you live with relatives, then you can enjoy that check every 2 weeks and live a lazy life. I actually have seen this with my own eyes when I used to go to the unemployment office I saw many lazy people and I even rented a room to a person like this. They all tried to tell me that they would rather stay unemployed, because they can’t find a job that pays well.
That kind of attitude tells me that there are so many lazy people out there. I honestly think that out of 10 percent unemployed only 4 or 5 percent are truly unemployed the rest of these people are just too lazy to go out early in the morning to look for work. Or they are not willing to take any job unless it’s one where they sit in an air-conditioned office and slack off. Maybe that was the reason they got laid off in the first place.
These are also the same type of people that choose to stop paying their rent or mortgages, because they think the government is going to help them out. I’d say help them out to be more lazy. I wish we would just deport these lazy people instead.
What is the best Internet Marketing Program out there?
Date: Tuesday April 15, 2008Posted in: Internet marketing SEO, scams, work from home
If you do a simple web search for Internet Marketing you will find Several different names like:
Sitepoint, Cody Moya, Derek Gehl, Majon, Courtney Tuttle, Jim Daniels,
SBI - Site-Build-it! or others.
There are so many of them. But which one is the best? Are they there because of word of mouth? Or is it because they pay for the Ad Words to get there? I am looking for one myself. I want one that really makes their own money from Internet Marketing and Not from the Sales of their $200 kits. I am not willing to waste money on a SCAM.
I have a friend that bought one of those kits and he used it. He got some results, but not as much as they say you can. He also gave me the kit myself. I read it, but did not find much more than I could already learn by reading the 10,000 ebooks that I already own. The ideas are all there, but they do not do it for you. You have to do the work and believe me it is time consuming, especially if you have to make multiple pages and proper links to each page. You have to make a lot of content, or higher someone to do it for you. You also have to send lots of emails or spam!
I am looking for somebody who will do it for me, but at the same time charge me based on results. So I would pay less in the beginning, but them more as I too make more money. These kit guys do not look like they would have the time to do that for me. But if any of you readers know somebody that does, I am all ears.
I have a site:
and I want to add 100 more ebooks to it. But it is too time consuming.
