I wonder if the Department of Administration understands that the people protesting are the same people that helped pay for that building?

Where were the unions supporting 99ers for the past year?
Didn’t they care about millions with no where to go but the streets then?
I got all the emails from AFL-CIO for years now. I never saw one mention of the 99ers in them since we started running out of benefits.
How much mention did we get at that big pre-election rally?
So now they want the 99ers to help them?
If we help them win will they fight for a tier v finally?
It sure seems to me that the unions wrote us off long ago too.
The only support I have for 99ers going to union rallies is to get media coverage for 99ers.
Are all the ones that many 99ers voted for even supporting them now?
Are the unions going to hire the 99ers?
I ask myself these questions.
All 99ers should too.
Where was “move on” for the past year on helping the 99ers?
A rally in San Francisco on Saturday drew thousands to the city’s Civic Center, in a show of solidarity with Wisconsin and the public sector unions there. The San Francisco demonstrators were angry about Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s plan to strip public sector unions of their collective bargaining rights, but that’s not all they were angry about.

Guaranteed.
Clearly words without any deep meaning. Useless in terms. It’s ok I have met employers with the same level of vigger you bring to the table. 99 % of those unemployed living with the bare minimal surely quick to castrate your ideology and view points but would not waste one whisper or utter a single word to your ploy. Bring your false wording to the table its ok but I have to ask how do you sleep at night knowing that the growing number of unemployed (People that want to work) clearly ask for no handouts but a chance to live the American Dream but yet at every turn are told to go away. Limiting the adult homeless for just a minute, how about the children living in the street who did not ask for any of this. Do you sleep well? Do you not care about anything in life? When was the last time you looked into a mirror and said to yourself I have done my very best?

Government Shutdown 3/4/11??? “How Much Gets Shttered in a Shutdown” http://www.npr.org/2011/02/25/134061482/…wn?ps=cprs
Global Insurrection Against Neo-Liberal Economic Domination
…There are two significant differences between the United States and other rebelling nations:
1) The US has a much more powerful, sophisticated and omnipresent propaganda media system to keep the populace suppressed – isolated and confused.
2) The US keeps 52 million people temporarily pacified in anti-poverty programs 46 by giving them food stamps, unemployment benefits or other forms of life-sustaining government assistance.
Both of these differences are temporary, and not in any way sustainable. The safety nets here are unraveling and cuts in vital social services will be implemented just as millions more will need them. At the same time, food stamps and other forms of limited government assistance will be worth less and less as food and gas prices continue to rise.

COLORADO anyone have any tier four updates, I called to claim yesterday and CUB line said that I do not have any weeks available to claim, my understanding was that tier 4 was to be made payable the week ending 2-19, I spoke to someone else that should be getting tier 4 she said no funds have been added to her account.
Any info would be great, I am on hold to talk to someone now but they often do not answer for several hours and if they don;t anwser by 5 you have to start over the next day
I’ll see if I can find anything on that.

Emergency Unemployment Compensation
February 23, 2011
If you are moving from one tier to the next because you ran out of benefits on that tier: Your payments were delayed because of programming for Tier 4. We are sorry for the delay, but your money should be on your unemployment debit card Friday or in your personal bank account by early next week. Again, our sincere apologies.
