*hugs* It's because they just don't have the money to pay for everyone at once, so they're having to stagger the unemployment back a few months. Like, for instance, I would have to remain unemployed for four more months before I will be eligible to collect. I wouldn't make it four months without a job, so I guess that's what they're hoping- that the fear of going totally broke will urge people to really ferociously seek another job. However, around here, there are no jobs to be had, which is why I'm heading out of state this coming Friday to hopefully find a better situation.
