Big business has ruined the country. And guess what? They are not done and there is not a damn thing we can do about it. Obama can shove his faith based initiatives up his ass. That is a really bad idea. More jobs less welfare buddy ok? And guess what the right wingers will still not vote for him hahaha. Jobs that pay are what the USA needs and fuck free trade until I hear that they are just blowing a lot of hot air. And the drugged out morons in the country keep eating their delicious shit sandwiches and keep asking for seconds. France is looking pretty good to me right now. And half the dumb asses on here will attack me for this but I guess the truth hurts. Oh and keep voting Republican they have really done a lot for you. You will remember the middle class as a distant idea of the past as you keep voting for the end of your very way of life. And Obama is no different he is just the same.     </content>

You know you are too funny ANON - You assume by someone&#8217;s name that they are the image that you have concocted in your head....I would say brain but in this case I might be pushing it a little to assume you actually HAVE one...You have conjured up a mental picture of Gramps purely by his "name" on this board as a butterball who has a problem with his dentures and is in failing health.

Am I to also deduce from YOUR name that you are indeed ANONOMOUS and therefore have NO Name.  I do believe there is a word for lack of name and parentage. Yes Indeed Mr. ANON....I deduce you are a BASTARD.

Have a little respect for ALL of mankind would you and if you find you cannot extend yourself to common curtesy, please leave allow the remainder of us to share our posts.

Gramps is going out on a job now. Probably $35-55 to  blow out a clogged dryer vent in a condo. Moving the dang thing out in close quarters takes time. I will donate the $ to the local food pantry. ( believe it or not)    </content>

I have said this for years. The two party system is broken. Whats funny is both parties have you convinced you are throwing your vote away. And our supposed "fair and balanced liberal" media will not even cover other candidates or let them participate in debates. The last time they did Perot cost Bush 1 the election. So both parties have agreed to bar all outside competition. The day the people figure this out we will have a genuine third party. And if enough of them "throw their vote away" we might have some real change too. And I keeping hoping but I know its not Obama you are right. The parties are too corrupt they will get to him sooner or later. Bloomberg for President NOW!    </content>

Well they don't fight for unemployment extensions. In fact the Government there pays for women to STAY HOME after they have a baby. A good health system that is free. The country is set up for high gas prices and have vehicles in place with high fuel standards. Not street legal Hummers. I visited France last year a family member lives there. He could not find work here after he lost his job and the difference in the quality of life is astounding. Then I come back to the good ole' usa lose my job, my home and all my possessions have slept on friends couches for almost a year can't go to the doctor and I guess I just saw not everyone lives this way. To each their own I guess.    </content>

The unemployment rate in France in April was 8.1%.  Gas prices are double what they are here, so I fail to see how you would benefit.     </content>

This is some info for claimants that live in NEVEDA:

Governor Gibbons has been proactively working with DETR in anticipation of the passage of
H.R. 2642. The necessary computer enhancements to enable payment of EUC benefits is well
under way and the Telephone Claim Centers will begin taking EUC claims on August 4,
2008.

To file EUC via telephone call:
Northern Nevada-- (775) 684-0350
Southern Nevada-- (702) 486-0350
Rural Nevada &amp; Out-of-State-- (888) 890-8211

on or after August 4, 2008 and select &#8220;Option 5&#8221;. Telephone EUC claims will be backdated to
July 6, 2008 when necessary. There is no Internet Claim Filing option for EUC at this time.


Thank God!!  It only takes 1 month to get the system set-up!!    </content>

Why does this guy keep coming here? Guess you have not made it big either. Why are you on an unemployed site for a bill that has passed? You lost moron. And does that not tell you the state of the economy with so many thoughtful and insightful posts here? It tells me that a lot of good educated people are out of work and that is not a good sign in my opinion. But instead maybe look at like that not your 1960s idea about what unemployment was. It is very different now. In fact anyone who has a job I know is very afraid of being laid off. You could even be next. But my guess is you were and are not employed now. Many are on here during a holiday because they desperately need this money and need information. Why are you on here during a holiday since you have such a great job? Get help now before you hurt someone or yourself but to tell you the truth I wouldn't really care if you hurt yourself. Happy 4th    </content>

We can file a claim on the 6th here in Cali......I'm guessing a check by the 18th......I'm in Sacramento so it usually takes 4 days. Form out on the 14th......check by 18th or 19th :)    </content>
