It's bad to want to qualify for the unemployment insurance that *I* have
paid into for 30 years?

I don't know where you live or what state you reside in but in
in all states that I am aware of, including mine, your
employer pays into a fund that provides unemployment
benefits. You don't pay it.

States have different structures to their programs, i.e. some
have a "positive/negative" balance program that determines
how much the employers pay. This benefits companies that
have a lower turnover of employees or fewer unemployment
claims while penalizing those who have more.



Ahh, precisely. It's an employer paid tax, and it is a state and federal
program.
