beats your plan. which is Nothing.all of theses posts and you still don't understand the concepts.There is no appeal to ignorance of the law. Employment is at-will not for-cause.If you can quit you should be able to collect unemployment benefits.
Why? You left of your own free will. If you wanted the money you should have stayed until you found something else.
The employer lost a worker and you lost a paycheck. The employer can't force you to stay and you can't force them to pay you. Equality under the law.
It is both. They are not mutually exclusive.
Employment is at-will under most circumstances. Both the employer and the employee are free to end the relationship at any time.
Employment is for-cause in fewer cases, but is equally important. For the employer, it is important that you are not stuck with an employees who violates the law or company policies. And to be able to deny employee compensation benefits, if they were fired for-cause, is important for financial reasons.
from: What Happens When Former Workers File Unemployment Claims?
"If former employees file for unemployment insurance, you will (indirectly) be the one footing the bill. Benefit payments are charged to your employer tax account, which results in increased state tax rates. The more unemployment claims the state approves, the more you will contribute for unemployment taxes."
So expecting an employer to pay more taxes when you, as the employee, violated the law or company policy, is insane.
And, as an employee, you can fight against being treated illegally, such as denying overtime or discrimination.
What you are describing is a result of our current regime. I am advocating changing our current regime from an employer function to a purely State function. Employers would no longer have to maintain unemployment compensation accounts or deal with those issues. Anyone unemployed would simply go to a State office for unemployment benefits. Taxes would be general not direct on employers.
I understand what you want. You want to be able to walk into the unemployment office and say "I don't have a job" and have them send you a checks for $560 a week, indefinitely, no questions asked. No oversight to prevent fraud. And no requirement to show whether you need it. Just checks because you want it.
That is simply parasitic.
Why do you believe circulating capital in our market based economy is "parasitic"? We have a First Amendment, your morals mean Nothing.
