If someone is unemployed how do they get health insurance?
They ask a friend or family member to pay for it for them, just like they pay for food or rent. You can't get fined unless you file an income tax return. Obamacare isn't a magic wand that gives health insurance to anyone - you still have to BUY it. Obviously, with no income, there are a heck of a lot of things you can't buy - and health insurance is one of them.
How much money do you get when you collect unemployment?
Not enough to live on. It's a % of your earned income over last 12-18 months, up to a maximum weekly amount for 26 weeks, and a total $ based on your earnings. AND you have to file weekly to get benefits, apply for at least 3 jobs weekly, keeping track of them. Your check is mailed to you. BE SURE to have them take out federal income taxes from your check or you could have BIG problems when you file taxes in April. It's optional, and well worth receiving a dollar or two less per week than having to pony up come Tax Day because of no withholding.
Is it possible to get all my unemployment money at once?
No, becauase unemployment is only paid out if you're still unemployed and available to work. If they paid it all up front, people would keep it even after they got jobs. You need to make sure that being a full-time student won't disqualify you from getting it. You may be able to file your unemployment claims over the internet or over the phone, even from Florida. You may be able to arrange to have it direct deposited into your bank account. Or your state may issue a debit card, which you can use to get the money or just use it to buy all your things with. You don't have to be in the same state. Your state may want you to register with the unemployment office in Florida, or they may not. You do need to inform them of your current address and continue to file your claims.
What is a way to solve unemployment problems?
Cut taxes, then people have more money to spend. When they spend more money, businesses produce more. When they produce more, they hire more. When they hire more, more people are spending money, so they need to hire more and produce more. Opponents spitefully call it "trickle down economics," but it works. Conversely, if you raise taxes, people have less to spend, so production goes down, and hiring goes down. It can be a vicious cycle the other way.
