"Anyone unemployed will receive $25 per week more, their benefits may be extended for another six months, and the government will subsidize 65% of the cost of their health insurance under COBRA." WRONG! The Government isn't subsidizing 65% of the premium under the COBRA provision...the EMPLOYER is! What wasn't reported, was IF the employer terminates the group health insurance plan, coverage under the COBRA provision stops as well. No Group = No COBRA coverage.
