> Didn’t read the article, but why would you go work at a lower end job when you can make 80-90% of what you would make by just collecting unemployment benefits?

There’s a good article somewhere that looks into that specific question and provides some data and weighs alternative explanations. I wish I could find the link.

Alternatively we could all just debate it without any of the data from the article. I’m pretty sure I know which option is most popular.
