It's also the fact that you pay more taxes to cover it when you're working
while you're employed, at least in CA. If you don't pay the taxes, you
aren't covered. But if you do pay the taxes, you also aren't always covered.
There are situations where a sufficiently small business winds up paying UI
taxes and nobody there can collect.

A sufficiently small company isn't going to have a union either. :-)
