We all know there are leeches in society.  But you are making yourself a slave-- to your own obsession that the leeches are getting over on you.   Most of the extended unemployment benefits go to people who would like to work but can't find someone to hire them.   Personally, I would like to have a public works program instead of unemployment benefits extended to 99 weeks, because it could provide public benefit and simultaneously get unemployed people out of the house and boost their self-esteem, but you probably wouldn't go for that either.
