$450 SIGNIFICAN­T NUMBER

-

The U.S. is debating a “return-to-work bonus,” as an incentive for the more than 40 million workers who have lost jobs and filed for unemployme­nt. One senator wants to give people who stop collecting unemployme­nt and go back to work $450 a week for several weeks. Some want workers to get up to $1,200 if they find a job. Others say it is

unfair to give a bonus to people who stayed home for two months.
