Unfortunatly the article for her doing the work is kidna iffy. It did not go into details about what he made her do. It came out looking like he was a good guy to offer her the job unfortunatly, and tht she was just playing him. I dont agree with that, just what it looks like.
Yea this guy is a jerk. I hope he apologized to her for labeling her as lazy, asked for her resume and offered to help her find a job.
When you are on EB you have to take jobs that pay less.
No, itis the exact same as regular benefits, as long as the job pays as much.
http://www.ncesc1.com/individual/EB-QA.asp (broken link) Must I take any job while filing for EB?
Suitable work for EB claimants whose prospects are 'not good' is defined as any work you are capable of performing if: 1)the gross weekly pay exceeds your weekly benefit amount; 2) the pay is equal to the Federal and State minimum wage of $7.25 per hour and; 3) the offer is in writing and listed with the State employment service.
He is saying, federal taxes come from all states including NC, so therefore NCers are paying for these benefits. It is a political answer, just close enough to the truth for the media not to shoot down, but so far from it to not make sense when you dig into it.
This money was already paid by NCers, and is already appropriated for this task. By denying it all he is doing is letting other states have the money NCers have put into the federal government when we need it.
Yeah, really! And let's not forget to mention that those NC taxpayers he mentions does include those unemployed folks' money - or did before you guys cut off the benefits. We had the usual 5% withheld every week from ours. Doesn't that "technically" make it our tax money going to re-fund EB as well?

Well to be honest the average unemployed does not pay much in federal taxes. The average income from UI is 300 per week, so 15,600. The first 10,000 is exempt from federal taxes, so your taxable income from it is only 5600. So yea, some, but not much.
