1. Paying unemployment doesn't keep people from looking for or getting jobs.

That's already been proved. The reason they are doing it is to demonstrate that they think not getting vaccinated is a legitimate reason to quit a job, or that losing the job is not the employee's fault.

2. Kansas is one of them.

Under past R Governors, they done everything they could to make it harder to get unemployment.
Now they want to pay cry babies to stay home on their ass because they refuse a vaccine. Think
the only reason Gov Kelly (D) went along was congress had over 2/3's vote to over ride her.
Plus she's coming up for reelection this year & wanted to look reasonable in this red state.

3. Ahhhh...how does keeping unemployment numbers low hurt Biden?

Guess the law of unintended consequences is at play here.

4. The original post says keeping EMPLOYMENT numbers low.

They may have edited after the fact, I don't know, but what it states now is correct.

6. No surprise...

I predicted that they would make it easy to give unemployment to the deplorables.
