In one hand, voluntary unemployment funded by taxes seems unfair.
On the other, fuck the man. The wealth imbalance needs to be fixed and this is a step in the correct direction.
Unfair how? It's paid by employers, so kinda makes sense to me, i.e. employer caused the loss of livelihood, so they pay for the benefit to the recently unemployed.
The employer is, presumably, willing to pay them to work, just not at the rate the workers want.
Going on strike is voluntary.
I'm not in or from the US, but I'm guessing unemployment doesn't pay enough to live the good life? Should just be enough to keep you alive?
If you want to leave you shouldn't worry about starving in the pursuit of better employment imo
Unemployment probably won't even cover your bills, but will let you hemorrhage money slower
In the US if you want to leave your job, you won’t get unemployment. If you’re laid off you can.
I agree with you that it’s wrong, but that’s how it currently works in the US.
Unemployment is not for when people decide to leave a job. It’s for when your employer lays you off. Going on strike is much different than being laid off.
