That's exactly what's happened. For some the 99 weeks is running out now and others it will later but when it does, they will find work, and the unemployment rate will drop,imho.  

    I was unemployed for a few months in the 70's, I think there were only 26 weeks you could draw back then, it sure wasn't 99 Weeks! First month, great $$$ money keep coming in and didn't have to go in to work. Second month, nice, I could get to like this, third month, this is too good to be true, fourth month,,,,,,,,,what will I do when this runs out? Fifth month, heck this is about over and then what! So I found a job painting houses......
