Republicans Don't Believe In Unemployment Benefits...Right?

"With hundreds of Republican aides set to lose their jobs as Democrats take over Congress, K Street veterans tell Roll Call that some may have to file for unemployment benefits.

"The hundreds of Republican staffers — not to mention more than a few Members — who will lose their jobs in the next few weeks are going to face a hostile marketplace on K Street as unemployed Republicans flood the market," Kate Ackley writes for Roll Call."

More here.

Because Republican ideology and political philosophy is completely against Democratic liberal government programs like Social Security, Medicare, Workmens Comp and drum roll please ......Unemployment Insurance I expect every single one of them to not apply for and of course not recieve any benefits at all from such a horrible, liberal program such as this. Remember it is a "pull yourself up by your own bootstraps", "I did it all on my own and don't need anyones help" and "ownership society" kind of world that you want and believe in so fiercely that I am sure you will have no problem getting along just fine without liberal government help like a weekly unemployment check.

Isn't this what you have been fighting for ever since the New Deal was enacted by FDR?

Thanks to Crooks and Liars for the article tip.
