Millions to lose unemployment benefits

GREETINGS,

  ” America is falling. Her doom has come and none, said the prophets, shall help her in the day of her downfall. In the Bible, God pleads with you to fly out of her (America) and seek refuge in Him (Rev. 18:4). It certainly will change your minds about following a doomed people

— a people who hate you and your kind, and who call one who teaches the truth about them a hater. They are the producers of haters of us. We are with God and the righteous.”–pgs.178&179(THE FALL OF AMERICA)

  ” The white race is facing doom because she will not act according to justice and righteousness — which was not by nature put in her. But this is known and her race is frightened concerning her future, as we see here in America.

 The white man recognizes his coming doom and many of them would rather die here than to do elsewhere, outside of America, to try to defend what they call “their own independent sovereignty.” Some have poured gasoline over themselves and committed suicide by setting themselves afire.”–pg.185(THE FALL OF AMERICA)

  ” America is bringing about political gloom. Here politicians are unable to carve out a future for America. The plan of deceiving the so-called Negro politicians to work against their own freedom, justice and equality (salvation) that Allah (God) has brought to them, is making the so-called Negroes in high offices become the enemy of his own people’s freedom, justice and equality.”–pg.200(THE FALL OF AMERICA)

Millions to lose unemployment benefits

About 14.8 million Americans are looking for work.
Millions of jobless Americans are expected to lose their unemployment benefits, as lawmakers in the House of Representatives have failed to extend the program.

In eleven days, 800,000 people will lose all their benefits and by the end of the year, 2 million people will join their ranks, a Press TV correspondent reported on Saturday.

House Democrats and Republicans blame each other. Party leaders in Congress disagreed over how the $12.5 billion measure would be funded.

“This is unprecedented,” US unemployment analyst Scott Lilly says.

“We have always gone to extended benefits when we had unemployment above 7 to 7.5 percent. It is 9.5 percent now and we are terminating the program,” he added.

House Republicans and 11 Democrats wanted more spending cuts before they would authorize the extension.

Meanwhile, according to the Department of Labor, the current unemployment rate has been around the stubborn 9.6 percent for weeks, with 14.8 million people looking for work.

In the past 3 years, federal spending for unemployment recipients has reached more than $300 billion.

This comes as the United States is about to start its holiday season and its coldest. Even with the federal government’s subsidizing job and welfare programs, nearly one in 5 Americans say they lack the money to buy basic groceries.

Despite the deadlock in Congress, there is still a chance for millions of Americans to receive unemployment checks.

If lawmakers can reach an agreement, the House has two days after this Thursday to pass benefits legislation.
