About this sermon
A recent report reveals sky high unemployment benefits to the tune of $100,000 in some states. The Heritage Foundation along with experts at the University of Chicago found families in states like New Jersey and Washington can receive the annual equivalent of a 6 figure income with no one working, all thanks to a combo of state and federal unemployment benefits and Obamacare subsidies. Coauthor of the study and research fellow for Regional Economics at the Heritage Foundation, EJ Antoni, joins to share whether this is the reason so many workers are sitting on the sidelines. A number of states are doling out the dough. Antoni tells us about those states and where people can receive these 6 figure stipends. Antoni explains whether a lot of these benefits were supposed to go away with the pandemic and why they are still here. Most people are in agreement that we need some sort of reliable safety net for people who fall on tough times, but that this should be a short-term deal. Antoni discusses why the government is not on the same page and what can be done to fix this. He fills us in on what these programs and abuses do to the human spirit.
