At least in New York State they are. The doom and gloom subsidies that this administration and New York State legislators have the unintended consequences making people not want to work.
Here we are with employers wanting to hire workers with the oversight (unintended consequences) by legislators is causing a restaurant employee hiring crisis. 20% of our small restaurants are bankrupt or not coming back due to this lockdown and the bad economy from earlier.
Some Socialist Democrats want to give guaranteed income to people and giving too generous benefits to some unemployed. We know the guaranteed income to those who don't want to work is just gonna lead to drug and alcohol abuse for many. I have a druggie dropout stepdaughter who lives on the street until recently and Canadian Welfare pays for her pot, Cigs and beer. Giving too generous an amount for unemployment will have the person stay home and play on their PlayStation 5 instead of working? I thought we learned our lesson in the 1st coronavirus bailout?

People are going to want universal income after this and employers will look to more automation

That is happening in Canada after my Province went to $15 an hour. My McDonalds has 2 cashier stations empty but has 4 kiosks to order food. If I want to skip that, a Supervisor rings me up. Other states/provinces with lower standards of living should have a lower minimum wage. Democrats do not get that!

SGT Charlie L. 15.00 an hour is quite doable if one is resourceful and depending on obligations. I before I got my current job I lived on 15 an hour between 2017-2019. I had a studio apartment for 700 a month with utilities included i was resourceful at finding it. I had a car payment of 222 a month. Car insurance for 77 phone and internet for 120. After paying for food and other things I was able to save 75 each month. Can a single parent live on 15? No but that's what other benefits are for. Can a couple live on it? No but if both are able bodied and one earned 15 while the other got minimum wage it could be done. Things come down to one's personal tastes and living conditions. You can't buy brandy on a six pack budget.

SGT Charlie L. You're right but I got a new apartment and job last year so I'm better off financially. I just wanted to share that it can be done. The biggest is location honestly. Places like NYC and LA or San Francisco it can't be done. I live in Philadelphia so rents and costs of housing are more reasonable than other cities on the east coast.

Stephen, we have a melting pot here in American, many of us have historical roots that take us back hundreds of years. Many have this stubborn pride like my dad, if he did not earn it, he would not take it. You might be onto something here that is very interesting if a realistic survey was taken. I think about the reality of it, many might just prefer to take government funds than to go to work. I have been retired for 8 years and happy where I am right now, speaking of retirement funds and not the state where I live in. I hate the idea of politicians making decisions for me and I strongly believe that any big decisions being made by the politicians in power must and should be presented to the people for approval. A good example is this border crossing of children by the thousands excepted and approved by the Biden administration. Who in their right mind would do anything like this with innocent children being sent into the unknown alone??? All USA Americans who were forced out of their jobs due to no fault of their own should be receiving unemployment or help from the government. Playing around with double-edge swords is dangerous to our nation and our US citizens!!

You should listen, Chuck, to Oscar El Blue. He is hated by the US Liberal media. He covers the border Crisis from TJ, Ciudad Juarez or even Guatemala City. He goes where most reporters do not. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5ayswPoPaY I am investing in Oil even though NY state is divesting of all Canadian oil companies because they do not have a shut down plan! Can you believe this shit?

I am currently getting paid to stay home. I am on worker's compensation after getting shot at work.
I admit, getting paid to play on RP is pretty awesome.
But... I also used the time to find a new job and I start in a week, despite not being 100% healthy yet. It isn't in me to stay home and get paid to do nothing.
