You mean what can cause a person to lose their benefits besides receiving them for the maximum length? Basically any time that someone stops meeting the eligibility criteria (an increase in household income, moving to another state, etc).

... Then what's the issue?

What do you propose someone do if they find themselves spending more than twelve months over the course of their life in a minimum wage job that doesn't allow them to afford food or housing or healthcare?

I don't know what the cost of living in Arizona is, but here in South Carolina, while it would be rather spartan, it is possible for a single person to obtain adequate food, housing, and healthcare on a full-time minimum wage job.

The problem is that you would be in South Carolina.

Yes, how dare they have low taxes but also a balanced budget?!

That has nothing to do with cost of living.

Still 7.30% lower than the national average
