Same, so I did the math. $300/wk additional unemployment is $15,600/yr, on top of what is generally pretty minimal unemployment benefits. Now, if you win $15k in the lottery, Yay! Pretty nice payday. If you quit your job because you can live on unemployment + $15k, I am going to assume your parents are paying your bills. Because, at least here, that is not enough to live indoors, let alone eat and drive, but it makes for a good RWNJ talking point.
