Large businesses have gotten massive help from the fed to keep their stock prices high and are dipping into a multi-trillion dollar slush fund. Small businesses have access to a loan program that will pay their employees and rent with complete forgiveness.
But the problem is people who got fired getting some extra money for a few months when they are unlikely to find a job for a long time.
If a company offering the security of a job can't compete with a few months of unemployment, maybe their offer is shit and they should pay more.
