Lots of unjust disparities all over the country. In Illinois the liquor stores are considered an essential business. The unemployment offices are all closed because they are not considered essential, even though over 500,000 unemployment claims have been filed the past 30 days.

Why isn't there an online system in place for that ?
There's no need for face to face contact to apply and then receive unemployment.

The online claims need to be processed by a human.
The humans in this case have been sent home.

I understand where you are coming from. I know people expecting a $1700 dollar check every 2 weeks for unemployment plus the huge chunk the get in link card(food stamps or whatever your state has. ) ends up almost 4k for the month. He was working for 10 bucks an hour before that.
I know it's only a temporary thing but if that pay was for a year it's close to 50k for a person that would have made less than 20k while working.

Seriously? 4K a damn month?!!! That’s almost more than my household brings in a month for working our butts off!

its all essential and its BS that its all still closed. Oh I get it, but NOTHING is fair in life. Yeah, tell that to the people RUINED by this thing that will NEVER be made whole. This lockdown isnt a natural thing, it was put in place by people who think they know better than you, so when are they going to make those affected by this, whole again? Never, thats when. Tell them how life isnt fair, go ahead smart guys, I DARE YA.
Well, gee I guess those people might as well die too. RE-TARDED.
You can stick your BUT BUT BUT BUT these measures SAVED US ALL up your butt. Bootlickers. Kowtow for your masters some more teat suckers.
