Unemployment insurance for example.

Most states only give unemployment benefits if you're let go, not if you quit in most circumstances.

That's the same in more.... Socialized employment insurance.

We have government EI here in Canada, and if you quit, unless it's for a very good and provable reason, you're getting denied.

... In some cases if you're fired with cause (eg, stealing) you're also ineligible. You have to basically get downsized to get a payout.

Yay capitalism.
