"Earlier, the panel advanced HB 119 the proposed restructuring of the state's unemployment benefits system. Lawmakers pitched it as a way to get more people into paying jobs and a disincentive against remaining in the unemployment benefits system for too long."
Unemployment is at 3.8%. That is extremely low historically and globally. This is a nonissue. --- I post clips of my cool, stupid and glitchy MH Sunbreak and Tears of the Kingdom gameplay here just for fun. https://youtube.com/user/linkachu1000 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Lawmakers should not be allowed to bring forth laws in order to benefit their own businesses but the trying not to be a corrupt piece of shit challenge is impossible for Republicans.
No kid or adult for that matter is saying "sure I want to keep working and not have a break" so fuck this lying piece of shit. --- "How can.. the Prime minister.. support a law.. that makes it illegal for people.. who....What I'm trying to say is.. Oasis rules!" ... Copied to Clipboard!
