You know we pay in those unemployment benefits, why is it not there? We shouldn't be running out of money unless they spent it on other things other than unemployment (such as their pay raise????)Remeber to vote in the next election and get those crackpots out of there!!

how do u find out if u can get extended benefits, cuz the web site hasno information and ever time u call u can never get a hold of any one to ask??

normally 26 weeks and 13 week extention depends on what company you work for as to how long your benefits will last some will get longer as they need it more (sarcasism)

I work at Hufcor and they are laying off at least 60 workers in Feb.

Michigan's unemployment rate was 10.6% on Monday.

Yeah hufcor? Hadn't heard that one either...How reliable is this source? Impeccable?
And can't we agree it's more of a depression than a recession now? Or do we have to wait until we can look back at this and say"yeah,that was definately a depression."
I think rock county qualifies-highest unemployment rate for any county in the state, as if that wasn't obvious already. California is growing closer and closer to 10% unemployment rate-Think they reported yesterday it's jumped to 9.4?9.6%? One of the( or THE?) most populated states in the nation. Woe is me!!

Raise the taxes for business who are already experiencing the effects of all the unemployment... Great idea! Put even more people in the unemployment line.

Hufcor is laying people off ? . I wasn't aware of that ?

With Wisconsin in the top 10 highest tax states in the nation, our lawmakers are trying to avoid raising taxes on business?? Wow!!

But hey lets fund a ice hockey team lose ur biggest employer in the county and let the workers fall by the wayside

and more people getting laid off next month from Harley Davidson, Hufcor, and any business that hasn't made a public medial announcement... it will be interesting as to what is decided today at the legislature's budget committee...
