Interesting statistics for Florida
These are approximates from what I've been reading. Florida unemployment 400,000
Florida jobs available, 400,000
Now even to me it's obvious that not all jobs will line up with the applicants.
But I seem to remember in the Carter years when we had 15% unemployment in 15% interest rates. Nobody got an extra $300 back then. And all the stores seem to be doing fine and all the industries seem to be doing fine. The extra unemployment is feeding the high inflation rate and yet the Federal reserve refuses to increase the rates that the banks have to pay and thus the banks have low interest of less than 1% to their savers, but I still see 28% interest rates on credit cards. I know the $300 started in the previous administration but maybe it should have been only $100 for 8 or 12 weeks for the majority of the people on unemployment and maybe some of the money should have been shifted more to food stamps to help those that are truly poor. Further I have to say if you don't save your money I have very little sympathy for you when you get unemployed even if you're at the bottom of the brackets you should know that you have to increase your education to get a better job and your skill sets yes I know there are some of us that can never do this and I feel sorry for them but I also feel sorry for my children and their children that are saddled with a 20 trillion dollar deficit
