California Owes $55 Billion on Unemployment Benefits | Will Swaim
"In the COVID era, people ended up on unemployment and the federal government sent out about $100 billion to California and a huge amount of it-about $55 billion-was lost to criminal gangs. Fraudsters show up from all over the world. We're talking about international crime, gangs, and people in California prisons and jails."
Siyamak sits down with William Swain, the president of the California Policy Center. We'll discuss how California now has about $55 billion in unemployment benefit liabilities, of which a significant amount was due to EDD fraud during the pandemic, the biggest fraud of its kind in any state. Now, California businesses are liable to cover these costs.
"They're not just going to eat that out of their profit, these businesses. They're going to raise their prices. You wouldn't know a whole lot about this because the business community itself is really hesitant to raise objection, or afraid that if they do, the regulators will descend on them and find something wrong with their business."

Because I didn't pay it (because I can't get enough work) they have suspended my license.

The reason why they were susceptible to fraud it is because they made people pay back their unemployment back when they would get a second job because they would go over? I got paid $20 more per week for about a month and ended up paying them back over eight hundred dollars. How they could charge people for receiving their own money is beyond me.

It's not "your own money". Employees don't contribute to the Unemployment Insurance Fund. There is no deduction for such on your pay stub. The employer foots the entire bill for it. That said, the entire system in California is so messed to allow people who make an honest mistake to be hounded while gangs and fraudsters get away with millions.

@@maryannecba3889oh, but you DO contribute as an employee, its just not a "Structured and Labeled" contribution. But as an Employer I factor that cost into EVERY employee I hires wage. I would be totally on board to pay EACH and EVERY employee the EXACT amount I shell out for their UE Insurance requirement when I hire them, but have to consider that REAL cost of employing each individual into the wage I'm willing to negotiate with them for their position with the company. So in essence, they'd be bringing that pay home would contribution be mandated, but because of that added cost, I have to reduce the wage Im willing to negotiate off the top. I'd wager MOST COMPANIES factor this in. They are ALL reducing an employees ACTUAL realized wage and that reduction reflecting from 50%-100% of the cost of the UE's contribution cost per employee. Effectively removing that income that they would bankroll and take home in wage compensation. So, yes, per se I as the EMPLOYER am actually making the payment, but its WITH funds that otherwise would be making its way into the employees paycheck. Unemployment is a crock, right off the shelf anyways, unless you are earning FAR below poverty level income anyway, most especially in California. It caps at about 1800 a month, good luck living off of that in MOST, if not ALL of California. Hell, that'll barely cover the cost of rent for a studio apt in a lot of the State. So I guess one would be going without utilities, car payment, gas for that car, insurances, food and every other monthly expenditure one requires just to EXIST here, let alone ANY luxuries. Whole things a sham, just like SS. A bait and switch ponzi scheme from the getgo

Thank you California Insider!
EDD failed to make a legit application for the PUA, then those of us who really needed it got shut off from payments with no notice or real reason, thus taking our rightful funds has led to losing our business forever
Running a small business. We survived the pandemic and got a couple loans. Now sales are down, costs and wages are up, and now more taxes. Breaking even. We’re looking at possibly closing our shop and having to lay off 25 people. Some that have been with us for many years. And it’s just another drop in the bucket, no one cares, no help, not a lot of options. Small businesses are being gutted.

I moved to Japan some years ago, and like it here. One thing which Japan has done is to keep unions from having any power in industry or government. Japan is probably the world's most anti-Marxist country, and has seen unions as agents of Marxism. Since unions have no power in education, Japan's schools are among the world's best, and a high school senior in Japan has a level of education to a college sophomore in America. Since unions have no power in public services, public servants are efficient, do their jobs well, and treat the public as respected guests when the public have to do business with the government. Since unions have no power in industry, Japan's manufacturing remains relatively strong, and Japan does not have a "Rust Belt," or collapsed industrial cities. The end result of no unions is a country with the world's largest middle class. Japan is not a perfect place, because no place is perfect, but Japan has managed to keep political, union, and business corruption largely under control.

If no one is exempt, then why would the option be there to begin with? Who is exempt on the W4, who has no federal tax liability? State cit. or simply People. Read page one of the calif constitution, all people are Free...you can fill out a new W4 today, check exempt and stop paying income tax. stop filing 1040, state cit do not file 1040.

The unemployment benefit hasnt increased in over 2 decades and is such a small amount it doesnt do shit. Meamwhile they got rid of the max contribution limit and effectively doubled the tax rate in 1 year. That doesnt pencil for me.
This is money owed. Which meant it should have been there based on what the workers have put in. Remember Social Security benefits were never under any issues until after the Iraq war. The money is there but the people holding the purse have allocated it somewhere else. It most likely got relocated towards big businesses fearing they would leave if not done.

Please sign THE CURRENT RECALL PETITION for Gavin Newsom. Rescue California. Stop talking, TAKE ACTION! I'm trying to get signatures from our Latino residents, but I don't speak Spanish. The majority (Latino) of Californians HAVE TO GET INVOLVED. I'm trying.
Easy to help the debt quit giving our hard earn money to health care for people who are here illegally
California should just file chapter 7 and 13. We need a hard reset, the state will never pay that back without us paying for it on the back end. Balancing a budget, should be part of the requirements, that determines your eligibility to be re-elected.

Well, the best way for the businesses to fix the problem is to leave. California just leave and that will fix the problem.

Who hires people? Business owners. You wouldn't have a job otherwise. Dont say the government because they have very selective hiring and it takes forever.

Small business owner here. Labor costs and input costs have gone up so much the last couple of years, I have had to layoff all my American workers and replace them with migrants and pay them under the table with cash. Much cheaper without paying for workmen's comp, health insurance, FICA taxes, etc.
