It's crazy to charge employers for unemployment insurance at all.

You'd have my vote if you wanted to shift the cost of unemployment insurance
to the general tax fund or somesuch. If we're going to pay for public health
care from the general fund, getting unemployment insurance from it seems
reasonable as well.

I wouldn't even mind a co-payment by the employee, with the amount
(both from the employer and employee) based on collection history.
You know, that "insurance" sort of thing.

California has been described as "a fine-tuned job exporting machine"
but that applies to the US, too.

Yes, and it's going to get far worse.

Nevada is still the fastest growing state out there... I would imagine a lot
of the newcomers moved from California...

I moved from Vermont, which is even worse.
