How wise would we be if we created a system to help our unemployed that actually, in some cases, made it harder for them to find jobs.
Don't swing your head around too quickly, but, yes, that's exactly what we've done.
Employers' premiums rise and fall based on the claims for both Workers Compensation and Unemployment Insurance. Employers often respond with a hesitancy against hiring those they think might be inclined to file. Thus, we've a system in place that discourages employers from hiring many of the unemployed.
Not good, not wise.
Let's have the workers pay their own premiums.
