1. Raise the maximum a person can earn before the wages are deducted from the unemployment benefit.
In Ohio it’s 20% raise it to 35% and people will work more, pay more taxes and help out their families.
2. Increase the maximum income to collect Medicaid for the kids.
Why won’t the government do these simple things?
Here Are Two Ways The Government Can Help The Unemployed?

Here’s a third one: stop getting into people’s personal lives, taxing us and businesses to death, and wasting money on programs designed to keep the people down so there will be more jobs then people able to work.
I think the better question is why don’t people take care of themselves and quit looking to the gov’t to do it. In 2008, over 300,000 jobs were posted on monster.com. That is a LOT of jobs. People need to get out there and look. Too many are sitting back thinking it is a nice vacation.
To be entirely honest, it shouldn’t be the responsibility of the government to get people work. At the same time, though, both of your proposals sound viable in theory. Not too sure about physical execution, though.
