It can be asinine to take a job that pays lower than your unemployment does. Working such a job makes it more difficult to pursue a career in a person's chosen field because of the time required to actually be present at the job. Generally speaking, jobs paying less than unemployment are minimum wage type jobs. (There's nothing wrong with a minimum wage job, but they are typically not the jobs people have pursued qualifications to get.)
Taking a job that pays less than unemployment makes it even that much more challenging to keep a roof over one's head and food on the table. Do people exist for which unemployment is a pay raise? Perhaps, but I would imagine them to be the exception rather than the rule.
