		<description>YEA HA, it passed before I was on my death bed and let me add, we unemployed are good people. At least we are not eating horses, not that we ever would, thank God. &lt;br&gt;I&#039;m Country Carl the Artist and Advocate for additional unemployment benefits on Unemployment-Gone-Mad dot com. Across this great country the pawn shops were the only ones mining gold. As we waited for an unemployment extension, thousands more became dumpster divers, tent pitchers and street corner beggars. Even pets were becoming a burden for tearful owners and freaking out when they become abandon. So my hat is off to those of you who finally saw the light, because these New Depression Blues times can drag a good man to the bottle. Bless you Senators my beer summit is to you tonight. Here is another big YEA HA from Country Carl. So google me up and cheer along, you did it.</description>

		<description>What a joke, extend the benefits on the pittance it amounts to nothing. Its a joke the money I have pissed into thew governments pocket, yet when Im out of work and need to pay my $3000 mortgage and feed, clothe and pay for heat for my family the government gives me $1200, my only choice is to off-my-self so my family can collect insurance, another scam I have been paying into for decades.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;feel free to keep giving billions to the banks, they are the ones that need it, and fack the people with family&#039;s, or the middle class. How long till people have had enough and retaliate or has America become a bunch of spineless pacifists?</description>

		<description>They extended it so the jobless can spend the money on their &quot;health care&quot; premiums to keep the flow going to the &quot;death panels.&quot;  The jobless would be in a less of a bad situation if they had  &quot;health coverage&quot;  and could spend money on other crucial items.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not surprised they passed it.  They will dole out a little money to keep all of the unemployed from taking to the streets.</description>
