The 10 Worst States to be Unemployed
By Bloomberg Rankings and Nikhil Hutheesing – May 9, 2013 4:53 PM ET

Not All States are Equal

Being jobless is always tough. In some states, though, it’s tougher than in others. Many provide barely enough unemployment income to let people scrape by. Where the unemployment rate is high, the competition for jobs is that much rougher. In states with a big gap between the richest and poorest, the psychological toll of joblessness can be greater, with high-paying jobs hard to get and low-paying jobs unequal to the bills. Across the board, nearly 11 percent in cuts in federally funded unemployment benefits went into effect on March 31, further shrinking resources.

No. 7 New Jersey

Unemployment rate: 8.99%
Benefit as a percentage of income: 38.39%
Wealth disparity ratio: 1.46

New Jersey has the greatest wealth gap in the nation. For every household with income of less than $10,000, there are 1.46 households making at least $200,000. With a high unemployment rate of 9 percent, plenty of people are getting unemployment insurance. It covers a bit more than 38 percent of lost income. Things may get worse: The automatic budget cuts that kicked in this year could result in $6.5 million less in federal grants going into the state’s unemployment insurance in 2013, according to Pew Charitable Trusts. On the bright side, New Jersey’s employed population, as of March, increased 1.16 percent from a year earlier.

Benghazi Talking Points Underwent 12 Revisions, Scrubbed of Terror Reference

When it became clear last fall that the CIA’s now discredited Benghazi talking points were flawed, the White House said repeatedly the documents were put together almost entirely by the intelligence community, but White House documents reviewed by Congress suggest a different story.

ABC News has obtained 12 different versions of the talking points that show they were extensively edited as they evolved from the drafts first written entirely by the CIA to the final version distributed to Congress and to U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Rice before she appeared on five talk shows the Sunday after that attack.

Republicans Are Refusing To Appoint Members To Obamacare’s Most Notorious Panel
Brett LoGiurato | May 9, 2013, 6:31 PM

One of the most politically intense fights over the Affordable Care Act was over the creation of the Independent Payment Advisory Board, infamously dubbed a “death panel” by Republicans during the 2010 elections.

On Thursday, Republican House Speaker John Boehner and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell signaled that they would keep working to keep opposition alive by doing everything they can to impede the board’s implementation.

The two leaders wrote a letter to President Barack Obama, notifying him that they would not be submitting any recommendations to the panel because of their opposition to it and to the law in general.
