Five minutes ago, I wrote a blog about the new bill that Senate passed and how it is going to benefit the unemployed. However, I guess everything comes with a price...(oh economy).
"More than 1 million people could lose their jobless benefits and health insurance subsidy in March if Congress doesn't act fast."
Right now, the Senate has until Feb 28 to help the jobless keep their benefits and health insurance.
If the Senate doesn't extend the deadline, people receiving jobless benefits won't be able to apply for additional federally paid unemployment insurance and anyone receiving those checks will lose those too!
When you think the economy is getting better, BAM! There is a trade-off. Oh opportunity cost! A bittersweet thing, no?
