The original commenter's point (I think) is that the government is inflating wages by giving money away for free. It's easy to tell others to pay higher wages when it's not your money or your business.

That's fine; if you shutter your below unemployment wage business, you can get unemployment wages too.

For a few months, then what?

It's like a monopoly dumping prices until you go out of business. Then once you are out of business, the free money faucet stops.
