If some people would quit abusing the unemployment benefits and actually go out and find a job, perhaps the rules would not continue to be tightened up so those with ligitimate claims could be processed. I applaud Scott Walker on the changes he has made in Wisconsin, taking a stand against those fraudulently abusing the system or intentially scam others out of the system. Someone in my family has just been scammed with Identity theft through the Wisconsin DWD. They received a letter from the DWD that their claim was processed and will begin receiving benefits. They had not filed anything as they are currently employed. Someone else filed, claiming to be them, so they could receive payment - this is stealing! Apparently the process is not tight enough yet if people can steal others identity's and apply and be approved for benefits.
