Republicans refuse to pay up

Cleveland OH

Description

I have to answer to the landlord, creditors, etc. and the unemployment office KNOWS it. I have faxed them daily asking for an update. Calling just to end up being put on hold and then after telling the rep everything except your blood type, you end up being told that the department that controls your case does not have any direct number. You are told to simply wait. I have been waiting for months since the beginning. I have applied for numerous jobs but my resume is age discriminated against. I'm not looking for anyone to 'tell me what to do' being that you don't know lots of details about my circumstances, however, I am sure that I am not alone when asking for help with collecting the allowed benefits. Not one penny has ever been paid. If I search out an attorney then I would lose one-third of the benefits. With all of the late charges and other costs that I have to cover because of no benefits being paid on time, that would also hurt. I can't apply for any help anywhere because my claim has been approved but what good is that if no one penny is ever paid? Also if you do not fill out the claim form exactly as you should, they send you a very long multipage form of tedious weird questions that you then have to fill out. You only have a small box to fill it out in and are limited as to how many characters are allowed. The Republicans want to create every little obstacle possible in every situation they can control to make your life as difficult as possible. You also are "required" to do who knows what in the OhioMeansJobs network which is full of scammers just like many job boards are now. One problem is they require you to complete a "Career Profile Assessment" but inside of OhioMeansJobs the "exact" URL of where that is located is not there. Instead there are many different sections with many subsections. Look all over for the words "Career Profile Assessment" and you will find various areas with one or more of those words in it but no single section anywhere where you would know you are in the "exact" location for that "exact" requirement. There are tabs with "week x" but still no exact wording for "Career Profile Assessment" but instead there is similar wording that are links that go to many more pages. I don't have the money to travel for two hours by bus to go to the OhioMeansJobs office, even though that would not do any good since they are closed. As an American, I am supposed to have the constitutional right to choose what job board and educational system I want but apparently the Republicans do not believe in that right for American citizens.
