No Money for the Greek Unemployed Before Adding Tier Extensions for the American Unemployed
No Money for the Greek Unemployed Before Adding Tier Extensions for the American Unemployed
The Issue
Unbelievable.
Shameful.
Americans are going hungry and seeking shelters because you say there’s no money for an unemployment extension for the unemployed who have no benefits left. They can’t pay their rent, buy food, or buy gas for their cars to look for work BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO MONEY. These are the same people who worked and paid into the unemployment insurance fund for 1, 6, 22, 36, 45 years.
…and you continue to make this travesty happen everyday by not adding onto Tier benefits.
So, don’t you dare send our money out of this country to help another country’s unemployed before you take care of ours! What could possibly make you believe the Greeks are more deserving than Americans. Is it because they know how to riot when their elected leaders lets them down?
Don’t make Greece’s model of rioting in the streets the only way to get your attention.
Add to unemployment Tiers 1 to 4, and create a Tier 5. And make the additions last until there are jobs.
First jobs, then benefit cuts.
This petition is signed by very angry Americans.
