Louisiana is set to start doling out supercharged unemployment benefits of $600 more a week on Monday, providing the first wave of relief to a staggering number of residents seeking aid as the coronavirus rocks the state’s economy.
But as benefits begin flowing and officials project no part of Louisiana is on track to run out of hospital beds or ventilators in the coming 10 days, Gov. John Bel Edwards warned Wednesday it will be a long time before things return to normal.

In the meantime, as Louisiana’s stay-at-home order is set to keep thousands of businesses closed until at least April 30th, the Louisiana Workforce Commission will start paying out the extra $600-a-week benefit to unemployed Louisianans starting Monday, Edwards said.

If numbers are decreasing and no end of stay in place is seen; people will say frick it and either take to the street or do their own thing and open back up.
JBE going to arrest everyone?

Just LA, the 600 dollars per week did not make into the national bill did it?

Lol so many people gonna ride it out until July 31st on unemployment.

$600 divided by 40hr work week= $15/hr.
I would suspect anyone making less than that prior to the shutdown will stay out as long as possible.

for the love of god please don't let JBE extend this stay at home order past April 30

A lot of people will be content to sit at home and take the $600 a week.
No one seems to acknowledge this fact. They just act like people will be rioting to get back to work. A lot of people are not going to be that way.

The steps towards socialism are incremental.
Today the enemy takes another step forward.

Pretty sure the $600 is a max amount depending on how much you normally make. I don’t think you’ll be making $800+ a week if you did not before.

Nobody’s gonna work. Grocery stores will close! Socialism will soon be taught to the hungry masses. Why work?

Doesn't the unemployment agency average your hourly or salary pay and come up with a weekly figure? Someone making $960 a week could be mighty happy sitting home on $1500 a week.
This is what Graham was arguing. People would beg to get fired. But it will only be for a few months max so good for them; but it will take longer for that hospital to get an HVAC-R commercial repair.

A separation notice had to be sent in if anyone was let go. If those people are hired back and they refuse, then I would hope unemployment would be notified so they can no longer collect.

Everyone doesn’t get the $600. Big misinterpretation. Depending on what they used to make it could go up that much more. People that were making less wont get that money.
