A just reward for labors (Raleigh News & Observer editorial) -- It has been a tough time for working people in North Carolina. Hit by recession, and by a massive loss of manufacturing jobs even before the recession, many working folks found themselves under- and unemployed. And then along came a Republican-run General Assembly to heap insult upon injury by cutting unemployment benefits with the Dickensian idea that cutting benefits would encourage people to look for work. As if they weren’t looking, and as if the average $300 a week or less afforded them fat times.
