<description>My company laid off over 700 and after 11 yrs. of continuous work I am now unemployed and struggling to find another job.  There are none for displaced Mortgage Processors here in Northern California.  I have had to try to re-evaluate what I can now do to support myself.  The job market is bleak and Unemployment &quot;One Stop Centers&quot;, do not help!  They give you the run-around and we all are floundering.  What I will do, is beyond me and there is not help for people like us.  And we're not in a Recession?  I guess if I had a Legeslators salary I'd not care, either......</description>

<description>I was laid off the end of last August and I received benefits until the account ran dry. Rather than applying for aid, I'm still sending out resumes and have tried to do contract work with my writing. At near-58-years-old, the jobs are scarce and the preferences go to the young people. There are a lot of us out there who could really use the extension but afraid that by the time they get done talking, well, I don't know what I'm going to do beyond tomorrow....</description>

<description>This bill covers anyone that has exhausted benefits after July 2007 whats wrong with that? It's a start and covers millions of people, Democrats should be taken to the curb.....</description>

<description>The way I am reading this is that if you were exhausted before April 1, you are not included in the extension which is not fair, the scrooged up the economy so why can't we get a part in this...</description>

<description>What are they waiting for? We need the help out here in the trenches. There are no jobs for older citizens who have been let go due to cut backs. There is a definite recession and it will get worse. Look at the price of oil - going up and it's not even an elevator.
Our leaders need to get off their hands and do something - soon. Thank you....</description>

<description>Adding to the bleak picture, the department revised the first two months of the year's job losses to a total of 152,000 from a previous estimate of 85,000.


sounds like a conspiracy is brewing...</description>

<description>THIS BILL IS A JOKE and the idiot who wrote it will be lucky if gets to stay in office! S2544 is the bill that should be condidered, NOT this crappy republican version, which helps NOONE! If they wouldnt have manipulated the numbers in january the extension probably would have been approved with the stimulus package....</description>
