There is no doubt that there is abuse in all these social programs such as unemployment, welfare, etc... the only debatable point is whether the benefits outweigh the costs...

milking the system is par for the course... it basically goes down like this:

first 2 months: "this is great man, I'm basically on a paid vacation, I make few bucks cash helping my cousin on the weekends, I work 4 days a month, and make about the same what I did before"

next 2 months: "nah, not really looking for a job, but if some good opportunity comes along, why not?"

last 2 months: "hey dude, know any job openings? my unemployment benefits are about to run out"
