People are abusing the system to get more money from stimulus, as predicted by GOP senators

Washington Free Beacon:

As Congress prepared to pass its $2 trillion coronavirus stimulus last week, a trio of Republican senators sounded an alarm, claiming that the bill's ultra-generous unemployment insurance could let many Americans quit essential jobs.

The 11th-hour objection by Sens. Lindsey Graham (S.C.), Tim Scott (S.C.), and Ben Sasse (Neb.) attracted derision and outrage, but the scenario they feared may be playing out. Some small business owners say their employees are resigning in part to collect generous unemployment benefits.

Daniel Johnson, the owner of a New Orleans landscaping construction company, told the Washington Free Beacon that while he runs a business deemed essential, most of his team has stopped showing up because of the coronavirus, preferring to wait on unemployment payouts.

"The majority of my team's last day was 3/13," Johnson told the Free Beacon. "We have plenty of work and the city deems us as an essential business because we are a city contractor working on green infrastructure projects."

"The employees expressed concern for several reasons," Johnson said. "Most focused on fear of bringing virus home to weak family members young and old. I get it, but our work allows them to have substantial space between each other. Most are desperately waiting for unemployment benefits and are not interested in returning to work anytime soon. Very frustrating as an employer."

That added spending includes a flat $600 per person per week for four months—the equivalent of a guaranteed $15 per hour full-time wage, not counting other unemployment payments or the $1,200-per-person cash advance also in the bill. This, the senators feared, would lead essential workers to walk off their jobs just as they were most needed.

There is more.

Was this something the Democrats insisted on adding to the stimulus?   It does appear to have been added late in the drafting of the bill.
