Privatize it

Reader comment on: Mankiw on Unemployment Insurance

Submitted by Adam (United States), Dec 5, 2010 08:45

I'm surprised companies don't exist that sell unemployment insurance. We have insurance options for everything else (health, auto, life, etc...), why not give people the option to buy UI themselves? If you want a policy that covers you for 99 weeks, pay for it while you are working.
