Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
Sounds like?
Yes,employers do pay into a unemployment fund. However,if economic turn downs cause massive layoffs or lack of funds then state or even federal funds are granted. Individual cases also warrant or do not warrant unemployment funds from ex employers. Yes employers do pay,not by choice,by law. Where did these laws stem from?Sounds like Union.....
The way I worked myself was the reason I was not a good boss. I did not have enough work to warrant an employee.
If employers had a little more common sense and a little less greed,and egos they would welcome trade unions. Some of todays unions could (and have offered)to take over all safety and industrial hygeine requirements that have been laid out by OSHA. Most employers tend to think in the same frame of mind as they did in 1937. And our schools tend to teach economics and buisness majors the same lame story"Unions are Bad news".
On the same note,the Unions tend to defend the bad employees and in some cases critisize the good(for not backing the bad employee). They also have a tendency to promote ineficency. If you happen to work in a "right to work state"they cannot close shop and therefore split a workforce into a two factions. The side that pays and trys to take part in the union and the side that free loads and bad mouths the union!And of course the company loves this enviroment and sees it as the begining of the end.
In my workplace,the young ones have been screened at hireing(illeagal,but done). Most are anti-union and are now prompting a NLRB vote to drop the union. I have four years left till retirement and am not going to be involved at this time. This company has a tedency to come down hard on any pro-union activists(not leagal either). I want to spend my last days under a rock,doing my job and being ignored... ... ... I just hope and pray we don't lose everything we have fought for in the next four years.
I still believe that a balance of power is the best way. If employers and employees have the same goal in mind,anything can be acomplished.
