Disney I understand continues to pay furloughed employees benefits. Give them credit for that. Also, employers pay into the unemployment system for their employees. Remember Florida unemployment pay is 275.00 a week which is less than $7.00 per hour. The stimulus package pays 600.00 additional a week. Between the two the unemployed Disney employee is making just roughly north of 21.00 per hour. Hallelujah that is probably more money than they make working... such a deal!
