You can tell us about the unexpected downsides too if you want.

interestingJust to be clear: I'm not arguing against there *being* a savings threshold, just that it is unreasonably low.
After all, I think unemployment is not a rainy day, rather a fact of life; and you can't punish people just because their employers were greedy / incompetent / unlucky.
If the Minumum Wage was actually a Living Wage; most people could replace lost savings, and I wouldn't be complaining.
