Alaska GOP candidate: Jobless benefits unconstitutional

  1. That's kind of a stretch for me. Should there be a limit as to how long a person can collect? Absolutely! But for someone to say a working person has no rights to these benefits is total bullshit. If they worked, then then have a right to collect unemployment benefits. It's their money.
    Further, I have no problems with welfare or other public aid programs to assist those which have fallen on hards times, but only for those that qualify, with qualify being the operative word. We should have safety nets to help those in need, and we should also punish those that scam the system.
    The problem is not the common working people. It's the no good, lieing sacks of shit in politics. Until their larceny is addressed, these social programs will always be in trouble financially.
