Extending Unemployment Benefits

12.07.10

It’s been a while since I looked at hard unemployment insurance data, but I seem to recall that when the insurance lasted 26 weeks, some high percentage (80%? 90%?) of the people taking advantage of unemployment insurance were “able to find” new jobs in their 25th, 26th, or 27th week after applying for unemployment insurance. Hmm, coincidence? Hardly, I think.

I’ve heard the argument in favor of unemployment insurance, which is essentially what Mr. Hammermesh stated above… the need to maintain “aggregate consumer demand” in our economy. We want the unemployed to maintain their consumption demand so that businesses aren’t forced to cut back due to a decrease in demand, etc.

However I feel like this is kind of a short-sighted argument. Unemployment insurance is just another form of forced income redistribution… those who are employed are subsidizing those who are unemployed, creating skewed incentives for both sides (why work when I can get paid to not work?). Let’s also not forget that unemployment insurance requires going through the government laudry machine; in other words, $1 given out in unemployment insurance requires more than $1 to be taxed from an employed person.
