For sure, Florida's UI benefits are insane.

There's not a ton of apparent rhyme or reason to a lot of the state maximums. Florida is $275/wk, California is $450/wk, Minnesota is $740/wk and Massachusetts tops out at $820-$1200/wk with dependants. That's a hell of a lot of spread. Certainly you can see adjusting for cost of living, but you think of that a fractional difference, as opposed to 300-400%.

Just another example of our barely functioning safety net that covid has laid bare.
