I have been working for over 30 years and I have never received an unemployment check, but I don't have a problem paying into it. Do those people against health care reform with a public option also oppose unemployment insurance?

No it is something as you said you have been paying into and if you did not you would not get it. With health care everyone no matter of they paid or not will get it. Two very different issues.

Yes they oppose all Socialist Programs which include Unemployment, Medicare, Social Security and Public Education. Freedomworks is suing to end Medicare and Social Security.

Yes, but I will probably never get any of the money that I paid in to the system. Is that fair, is it not socialism to pay for other people when you get no benefit?

Only for other people. When they themselves are unemployed, then they say they paid into it, therefore deserve it.

Now, I may be incorrect on this, but you can get unemployment after 6 months of employment, right?? So, you pay in a very minimal amount for 6 months, get laid off and then are able to collect for...2 or so years? I'm not positive, but i know there have been MANY MANY extensions recently for unemployment. How is that fair? That person would be getting far more out of unemployment than they put in.

Nope it is not fair and I think people should be able to opt out of it. The issue is it is there IF you ever need it. Not the same as NEVER paying a thing and still getting something.
