At-will unemployment insurance.

At-will unemployment insurance in states that have at-will employment laws.

I don't think the democrats went far enough in ending welfare as we know it.

At-will unemployment would be a more market friendly alternative to legislated welfare schemes.

With at-will unemployment compensation available, employers would be freer to exercise their Ninth Amendment right to create private social contracts that may result in employment, in manners more conducive to their private profit motive.

A uniform rule on this type of market friendly public policy would provide market recognizable metrics for the US as whole (e.g. GDP).

An issue of homelessness due to lack of income could be addressed with a minimum wage subsidy based on at-will unemployment. Panhandling laws would have a more ethical, legal, and moral standing, if an indigent person could simply apply for at-will unemployment compensation.

With lower barriers to entry, the private sector could provide value added products to any guaranteed public sector unemployment compensation.

People on at-will unemployment would also be freer to perform civic duties, such as jury duty.
