six months should go a long way toward helping with some of those expenses I mentioned]

How are we still paying people not to work? So many places are completely under staffed you can’t get service. Businesses are being forced to close early because they don’thave employees. It’s time to stop this insanity and everyone needs to go back to work like the rest of us!!!

[ Editor’s Note: While I definitely agree with you that it is a problem, we still have to address the fact that many jobs simply aren’t worth going back to in terms of what the real world cost of working is for those workers. When you factor in the cost of child care, gas, insurance, and other expenses, you have to be talking about making “ x” number of dollars before it makes sense to give up unemployment benefits. Of course, that well is about to run dry but until it does, I don’t really blame folks for doing what makes the most economic sense.

Hopefully, these “ child tax credits” that are supposed to be coming over the next

*** Nice paper this week with the graduates! [ Editor’s Note: Thanks! Always glad to feature those kids and recognize their accomplishments]
