Unemployment in the state of Oregon peaked in April.
It has come down slightly in the past 2 months.
True, we are paying some of these people to sit at home, but it's just the normal stimulus payments, not the extra unemployment payments.
only the people who lost their jobs in March and April are getting those extra payments, and if they ever turn down work, or fail to look for work, they will no longer get those payments.
And all this is also true in Florida anyway. It's true in most states. The law works the same, and the job losses due to the pandemic are about the same. If extra unemployment benefits explained everything, then the protests in Florida would be just as bad as those in Oregon.

DeSantis wouldn't  stand for it and you know it. Don't ever compare my state to the [BLEEP] hole that is Oregon.
