Actually, I support this. Since it was the federal government that mandated that these people not be allowed to work without being vaccinated, then the government should be supporting them when they lose their jobs.
Or they could do their jobs safely. Will they pay unemployment benefits to food service workers who get fired for not washing their hands? How about refinery workers who get fired for improperly disposing of toxic waste?

Maybe unemployment benefits for libs who suffer mental anguish listening to winger co-workers blather on?

The article references The peculiar situation where one governor is both supporting these payments and also trying to reduce payments to people that are actually out of work because there you know taking advantage

The two situations are unrelated. In the first, the government is mandating you're not allowed to work. In the second, people are choosing not to work because of lavish benefits.

The government isn't mandating that you're not allowed to work, the government is mandating that if you wish to work within a government run or government supported facility that you please get a vaccination so that you decrease the risk of a co-worker dropping the hell dead from covid. I don't think that should be rewarded, but then again who am I.

Again, if you don't get the vaccine, you're fired. Sounds like a mandate to me. Your article doesn't distinguish between government workers and those who are losing their jobs due to federal OSHA requirements.

I keep reading it over and over and what it sounds like is... If you don't get the vaccine you're fired.

One could not get the vaccine, get the hell up and go get another job that doesn't want you to have a vaccine and keep on trucking

Or start their own companies with under a hundred people. I'm sure. Still, it's the government who is costing people these jobs, so the government needs to be responsible for them.

These are people who did nothing wrong, and most aren't even infected.

No. They're costing themselves their own jobs. The government is merely acting to protect the rest of the people that work there, or patronize the facility, or are a patient, and so on. If they don't care enough to give a damn about their fellow citizen, their coworker, or the patient they care for, what's anybody going to say other than tough shit. Go out and find a bunch of like-minded individuals and open a and unvaccinated healthcare facility and see how many people patronize it

I read an article that of the 12+ million that quite their jobs many maybe majority got federal tax numbers and started Online businesses or working Online..................also read of some $27+ Online jobs but majority if for 30 hours evidently to ensure employers don't need pay 40 benefits.....?

Guess it beats getting dressed, find daycare and having to drive to work for many.........
