Fica is social security at 12.4% and medicare at 2.9% Disability is a part of these programs. The emplyer pays half and the employees pay half. Self employed people pay both portions. Look into going to an S~Corp shoes then the business will carry 1/2 of your tax burden.

I think if they are Able to get a job they should work It more of a pride thing and there are some people who Take advantage of any system and milk it for all it's Worth i am not saying all people do this but there Are a lot of them that do this when there are Job's out there for them to have really where are these jobs with benefits ?? My dad worked for 30 years and got laid off which he took early retirement it took him over a year and a half to find a job for a lot less money and with 1/2 the benefits .. oh yah if you want to work at burger king .. And have had to take lower pay but work is work and you can Work a lower Pay job until you Find something Else |

What is your opinion of people who are able to work, but sit home and collect unemployment due to laziness? I think that it is easy to make assumptions without considering all the facts. I think it is something that should be judge on a case by case basis. |

Well, my brother "works" two months a year to collect unemployment. Somehow he is broke for 12 days of the 14 days he has to wait for unemployment. He really is a leech on society it's really sad. he's 28 and has no ambition or will to do anything besides smoke weed or drink. It's really sad I'm much younger have had a car since the day I drove and always keep busy with school or work. He's a real piece of work. When did NJ change their unemployment requirements? As of 2001, you had to work 20 weeks and make over $2020 in a quarter to be eligible for UI benefits. |

I have worked all my life, I was taught to work. I never drew a dime of unemployment up until about five years ago...thats a pretty good record, thirty years. Theres a guy down the road on disability....nothing wrong with him.....he can dig post holes and build chicken houses but he can't work? Yes, lets support him. and thus a social security discussion developed |
