Unemployed Story #2032: Jacqueline, Providence-Rhode Island

I have been unemployed for about 60 weeks, and am not elegible for the 99 week cap. Please extend benefits until jobs with profitable wages are created. We want to live too, and the more of us who enter the middle class the broader the tax base!
You already know this course of action is leading to trouble, as several states are opting to have armed guards in unemployment offices. Extend benefits don't shoot the victims of the system!!!
