gwydion* 1.3 million people are losing unemployment insurance tomorrow to punish them for losing their jbs in the economic crisis and not being able to find new ones what with a national average of three applicants for every job. The Republicans insist this is necessary because it is easier for homeless people to find jobs than for people with homes, phones, interview clothes, access to the internet etc.. They insist rendering people homeless is somehow doing them "a favor." Even though all this is an outright lie, Republican cruelty triumphs over logic, evidence, and the right thing to do when it come to national policy.
