I should also add that there's a lot of means testing for unemployment depending on the state and sometimes you tick the wrong box and they've got you faxing documents in triplicate just for a couple hundred bucks.

    As an aside from unemployment specifically but on the topic of "social safety nets"...

    I found a website for a US state's SNAP program (assistance buying food).

    Digging through the details... if you have a job but work less than 20 hours at that job, you could be denied OR penalized for not working enough hours.

    For the record, my current job if I ONLY punched in/out when the office was opened/closed, would only be 16 hours a week. joker-shopping
