Injury rate would be a function of Workers Compensation Insurance, not Unemployment Insurance. They are two different things.

Your right, my bad. Don’t know how I got on that.
But that makes it even worse.
Looking up Utah’s way of calculating, – it appears a tax on the individuals wages up to 39k. Then a tax on the overall payroll. Then a smaller “social impact” tax that is not based on the companies wage output, but the overall impact of unemployment on the state.
Aaah it is like Disability. Employers also taxed on how many claims they have had in the last 4 years.
And finally
A tax based on the funds in the UI trust fund.
So at least in Utah . . . one 1/4 of the tax is based upon the workers wages, and it might not be all their wages only a part of it.
Just to be clear…
There are three factors (employee wages up to the base, benefit ratio, and social impact), there is no additional tax (the 4th element listed) that applies to “overall payroll”.
Secondly 1 of 4 factors (or in reality 1 or 3) does not mean that 1/4 (or 1/3) of the tax equals that amount.
- Current wage factor can range from 0.1% to 7.1% (the maximum)
- Benefit factor currently 1.00
- Social impact factor currently .001

Quite so. It is built into what is charged to the customer.

If all elected politicians serving during these decades of spending more than they take in, first donate their personal accounts towards solving this problem they created, I’d be all for cutting the check.
when the government does some labor to earn it, let me know,
my labor, my money
Not after you pay your taxes, or is the money you pay for things still yours?
Every day Democrat sympathisers like you are demonstrating over and over why Dems should be firewalled from ever managing, or rather mismanaging, state and federal funds.

In my small municipality, we had mail-in votes for a local election. It was confusing and inefficient. And in the same county, one of my adult children remained on the voting rolls in the county for 15 years, in which time she registered to vote in another state after moving there, changed her surname upon marriage, changed to another state again when she and her husband moved. But not until repeatedly contacting the elections board in this county for 15 years was she finally removed from the rolls. If she had’t been, I would once again receive at my house, her sample ballot, and - for this election - her mail-in ballot. Had that happened, I could have cast “her” vote, and no one would have been the wiser.
Sorry - I am with Trump on this. Apply for an absentee ballot if you are military, working or studying out of your district and can’t get to the polls, but otherwise, get to the polls.

Nope, I like voting by mail.

How do you feel about 80 ballots showing up to the address of an 89 year old woman?
The Los Angeles County Registrar is investigating how 83 ballots were sent to a single address at a San Pedro apartment.
The unused ballots were found on Saturday by tenant Jerry Mosna, sitting on top of the mailbox center at his apartment building in San Pedro.
The ballots were all addressed to a two bedroom apartment upstairs from Mosna’s, belonging to an 89-year-old woman.
Wonderif 82 other people had really lived in that apartment. Wonder if any of those other 82 have been voting over the years.
Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk Dean Logan said in a statement that his office is “carefully reviewing our records and gathering information to fully identify what took place.”
“Our preliminary assessment is that this appears to be an isolated situation related to a system error that occurred, causing duplicate ballots to be issued to an address entered for a single voter,” he said. “We are working directly with the system vendor to ensure the issue is addressed and to identify any similar occurrences.”
Wonder if they’ve figured out if it really was an isolated incident and figured out what caused it and how to fix it.
Going back further
Patrick O’Leary expected to vote in the Nov. 4 election. But when six ballots arrived at his East Fifth Avenue apartment in the past week, the Durango resident was puzzled.
There were two ballots each for him, son Patrick O’Leary II and grandson Austin O’Leary. Patrick O’Leary hadn’t opened the first envelope when the second round arrived.
2 ballots for everyone!

Allegheny County says a bug in the state’s voter registration system is to blame for voters receiving multiple mail-in and absentee ballots in recent weeks.
This was this year.
There was another one from this year where a single address received over 50 mail in ballots. Election department said that was all the people who lived at the address the last 30 or so years that hadn’t notified the department they moved, or had been notified they died.

Why bother voting if someone can vote on behalf of an absentee voter and cancel your vote with an illegitimate one?
Because that won’t happen.
No one seems to be mentioning that this “perk” will also be ending in July. I don’t know about you but a long term income is better than a short term one to me. What happens to all these “free loaders” when their UE runs out? If they even got it in the first place?
Think of the time, cost and personnel that will be required to verify the validity of every mail in ballot received. You won’t get a trustworthy election result for months or years.
It takes exactly as long as it takes a poll worker to look up your name and address, and match your signature to the ones on file when you vote in person.
“A poll worker”? And what happens when a voter gets five going ballots delivered to five different addresses because his address changes were not followed up, and has his signature forged on all five, but appears to have voted for Democrat on the one ballot each poll worker is eyeing, so the various Dem poll workers just automatically pass them?
Yes. Are you unfamiliar with how voting works?
You couldn’t answer the question.
Had you cast her vote you would have committed voter fraud. If they had matched her signature, which many registrars do, they could have charged you with voter fraud. I would imagine that the threat of being charged with voter fraud would act as a deterrent for most people.
