I had a nurse making $17/hr here in South Arkansas which is damn good for the area (Lpn), but was better off me laying her off and going on unemployment and Obamacare. I paid her premiums, but skyrocketing insurance premiums on her husband with health issues and two sons, one with newly dx'd seizures, made it the best decision by far to make ends meet. Plus she can work cash free side jobs during the time she'd normally be working and paying arse loads of taxes. The system is fricked. When people are better off not working than working, the system is complete shite. You have to be a fricking idiot to see it any other way. There should always be a reward for production. Always.

You wouldn't believe how many individuals I know that were laid off in the last 2 years that have not returned to work. Mostly males over 50 with health issues. Unemployment has expired for most of these guys.
