I did my research. I was primarily puzzled because you do hear of employers fighting an employees eligibility and I wondered why in the world they would care if it wasn't coming out of their pockets. The rate that they pay into the unemployment increases if they have more employees being paid out than they are paying in. So, it's like insurance really.. when you file a claim, your rates go up.

What they pay for unemployment sure wouldn't keep my family going for any length of time. My mortgage payment is more than the max that they pay monthly. I'd be out there trying to get as many jobs as I could rather than accept the max unemployment benefit.
