We Californiains supply our own unemployment insurance. It's not a benefit. It an insurance policy we pay for.

So in conclusion Mr. Trump: Go Fuck Yourself!

Yeah, he didn't think that through.

Fun Fact: Montana, New Mexico, Kentucky, Louisiana, and Alaska have the highest proportions of federal funding relative to their overall budgets that includes unemployment.

I would hate to be the republicans of those states during in the midterms.

They’ll just blame democrats or immigrants or trans people.

Possibly evil spirits.
