Here in Canada I worked as a electrician made good money. One year I had to collect UI to go to trade school. Well if you make over 50k then next tax year you gotta pay back almost every thing you collected on UI. Government is the biggest organized crime family ever.
Yeah, I more like got kicked in the balls. Not only did I loose my job because of the "Kung Flu" I also got my stimulus check stolen. The world reminds me of my Vacuum cleaner..."It Sucks!" (Tilt my head)
It did so some time ago, it's simply the liars at the top spewing lies and propaganda endlessly that everything is fine as they are simultaneously insidiously working to kill innocent americans via allowing the pandemic to rage through the population. As the Trump organization is now pushing for. The headlines will read something like the economy is great and everyone is happy, the dear leader is our god and we love him.

Nicole T that’s the part that sucks the worst. The Trunp administration refuses to answer a question at any point. Guaranteed every single time the answer is a pivot to something else, a misinformation blatant lie, then blame the democrats and then ramble about something completely irrelevant to the question, usually followed by another insult to democrats. It disgusts me to be LIED to and then called names and INSULTED every single day. Truth and facts are not things this administration believes in. Being lied to daily is the worst.
@@mraycgz Exactly what this country doesn't need. You. No they don't refuse answers. They answer every day. Lie.First you say they don't answer, then you say they divert away from the question.

You pay into an entitlement program that's the purpose behind you paying taxes when you already had pay taxes... Now Trump administration want to shutdown payroll tax which end ACA, unemployment insurance, SSI entitlement programs. 😩😷
Look at USPS 📬. Trump just set up a NEW funding 💵 plan so they get an additional $78bil, BILLION $$$. Federal postal workers get $$$. In 2020, computers, 💻 do 75-90% of the scans, sorting. The union member staffs %=÷× off.
You’re right again!!! I never thought I could be so pissed off and happy at the same time!! This topic is aggravating but your delivery makes me happy!!
Don't make him do the work in the hopes it might help you. Ask yourself what you can do to help change the situation. Stop trying to rely on others without contributing your own part.
Vic, If I could, I would make you PRESIDENT, LABOR SECRETARY & INSURANCE COMMISSIONER. You would have three Federal Titles and would never need to collect unemployment. LOL
It's simple Vic, the Government needs the money we make and the unemployment we need so they can pad their nest !! It's all about them, it was never about us!!
How is it when you get a bill for 1600 as a late fee for filing your business taxes when your business has been shuttered for five months and your business is in the red and you don't owe any taxes? Yet you have to pay a 1600 late fee because you are an LLC? Does not make sense? Don't owe any money yet have to pay a larger amount in a late fee than you ever paid on actual taxes.
The real question is why was it even late. Totally different problem you are stating. Late fee are penalties which is a failure to do something that is due. Its not a tax or the fee but your failure to do something that are mandatory to act prior to the noted due date. Sorry.. Can't see your logic on this one.
Very true! And they do not fully compensate you if the damage costs more than they decide the vehicle is worth, unless you pay the additional cost of GAP (or if you wreck your car right after buying it).
Yes.. They rate you as high risk if something happens but quietly take you money forever when you are low risk.. However giving back after X amount of year if there are no accident.. Nope, not a chance. Fat cat needs to stay fat.
I've been saying this for years. Oh yeah take out 20 present up front for taxes. Just puts the working person down another knotch. Stay safe my friend.
Not sure about NY. MI. IL. & IN have it where you can have them deduct the income tax from your Un-enjoyment, still not fair! When I was in the Army, soldiers didn't pay income tax, they do now, which is BS. Here's something that also ticks me off. Our Olympic Athletes have to pay taxes for the medals they win to represent the USA? That what ticks me off!!
So agree with you, Vic. Even worse, you apply for Unemployment and qualify for it, but they don't pay you. We have entire states that aren't delivering their unemployment payments... where is that money? We have been waiting for over four months and... nothing. "Payment pending resolution of an issue". No idea what the issue is but the money isn't there. I don't think there is any money. I run a tourist and travel based business and nobody is touring or traveling because of this shit response to a global pandemic.
Sounds like that state spent all of it. Usually, unemployment benefit is given by the local state. Its also tax or deducted by the state you work in. So yea, its the state who is sticking you up.

I've never had to pay taxes on SS. I bought a house which you can use for some deductions and was told, by CPA, that filing taxes was unnecessary as SS is NON-TAXABLE income. Is this a state thing?
@@jessiejohnson6424 I live in PA where all retirement income is not taxed by the state but I do pay Federal Income Tax on SS & withdrawals from my IRA.
I lost my job bc of covid & I had to move out of my home state of California for the first time ever to a more affordable area. Because my address changed, EDD can no longer identify my identity, so I haven’t received anything since Aug 2nd. It’s been a struggle after having spent so much to move. 😓
@DyDyDy My Darling: Wow! So sorry about that! Just remember, you're not alone. Almost all of us are suffering, too! May God provide for you and protect you!
Wait'll you go on Social Security, Vic... Same deal! You pay into SS the whole time you're working, then they TAX you on your SS income when you get old! **shakes head sadly**
Social Security (retirement) is non taxable income. You don't, necessarily, even need to file taxes on SS unless you have a job to help with the paltry payment so that you can afford food, meds and rent. The poorest of the poor are recipients of SS only. Cat food anyone?
@@jessiejohnson6424 Actually, it **is** taxable, for anything over $25k. So, the poorest people don't have to pay taxes (which is true even before Social Security kicks in...). However, everyone else pays taxes.
It doesn’t make sense.. you already paid taxes with your own income, including in the income is unemploy coverage, they can’t tax you again! This whole thing doesn’t.. You started paying tax with ur income, but no it doesn’t end there, u pay tax with ur mtg, car ins, clothes, even pay taxes when you save money, then you pay taxes again at tax season? We basically slave for them? Where’s our return?
Ready to get more ticked off!!! How about i’ve been workn straight for twelve yrs and because I switched to another company who closed a few months in cuz of the pandemic i only get $37 after taxes...and what about the ppl who never use that unemployment money they been paying? Do they give them a lump sum when they retire? Hmm 🤔 also what about government taking a month long vacation in the middle of a crisis... now that’s incredible!!! You know just a little bit of salt to the wound...YEA SURE!!! 🤷♀️ I can’t even choose a summer vacation because that’s when the job has the most demand...never mind there be a crisis!!! Seriously Smh 🤦🏼♀️
Uh.. Everything is life choices you mention. However the part of government on vacation while a crisis is always a little lost when one thinks about the logic.
KIT TSANG nothing wrong with the life choices mentioned here it just goes to show what one person is going thru which others might relate to regardless because many are going thru hardship...period...whether you want to empathize or not...your logic does not makes sense to me but that’s ok you are entitled to your opinion...but Vic couldn’t say it any better were not talkn the shop around the corner here were talkn about government who works for and should be serving the ppl (not the other way around) (btw isnt that what politicians say on they’re campaigns?) especially in a time of crisis where many can’t work even if they want to and that includes me where the one job i was able to get tx me on my first day and second day of work that there was not enough workload so on that note what choices are you talkn about when this pandemic is a global matter and let’s not forget ppl are dying but if you happen to not be affected with what’s goin on in the world don’t come here with your lack of compassion rather please keep your comments to yourself and maybe do some soul searching...wish you all the best
I'm going through it here in Jersey. The governor refused to apply to the federal government for the extra $400 because apparently he doesn't want to have the pay it back. Unemployment in the United States has become a joke. It's sad and scary. What about all of the people who haven't even seen a check?! Friggin out for control
He doesn't have to pay it back. He's not applying for it because it's a political statement against the Republican Senators not willing to compromise with Pelosi on an aid package
Same in California. They took away my job and they won't even allow me to return to it. Now they cut unemployment which doesn't even cover basic living. Now we find out from the CDC that only 6% of covid deaths were actually strictly covid. They destroyed my livelihood for nothing and I still can't return to it... criminals are running our states and most of these morons here will vote for them again.
The amount of spit on his dash must be incredible. I've been hit by exactly what he is talking about. We got hit with a tax bill for unemployment and caused a huge amount of pain. It made no damn sense to me.
Hey Vic, please talk about the student debt crisis in America. How the government can print trillions to give to Corporations but there is no money to get rid of the student debt crisis.
It is the students debt. It is a trick to place these young people in debt and lie to them that the education they’re getting will somehow make them successful. We are being destroyed internally and financially.
It’s always been that way. Should feel lucky you “qualify” for it, without the pandemic going on most wouldn’t get it to begin with. How does that make sense?
I love the TOV episodes when you talk about the working class and politics best! This episode was great. Now give us your take on voter suppression and what’s happening to the USPS!
Vic I love most of your videos but you are absolutely wrong here. The employee does not pay into unemployment. The employer does. Therefore the money that is received has not been taxed before. This would be taxable income. I think you're getting confused with Social Security
It looks like it depends on what state you live in. Typically, only employers pay SUTA tax. However, employees in three states (Alaska, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania) are subject to state unemployment tax withholding. If you have employees in any of these three states, you will withhold the tax from their wages and remit the tax to the state. Employees will not handle this tax themselves.
@ Michael Bravakis actually there is a portion of payroll taxes that the employee pays. However, let's do the math there. It totals (SUI/SDI/FLA) approximately 310. A year. So IF one were to go on Unemployment they are getting a hell of allot more than that. In theory, not paid by the employee.
@@lisamay5649 actually I don't even know if mine cheated at all, his abuse towards me really had nothing to do with cheating on me. I don't think or believe they all cheat. And if mine did he probably tried to get back together with his ex as she is just as crazy as him. Lol
Same with Social Security. They tax my SSC as income every year (after they automatically take out a chunk for Medicare) - that way I have to pay my CPA to add that in so they can recapture some of what they just paid me? Why not just take out a percentage before sending me the check so that I could bypass having to pay to send part of it back? The only reason I can figure why they do this would be if you are retired and cannot survive on SSC (and who could?), you have to keep working or do other things to supplement your income, which when combined allows them to take an even larger amount in income tax!
This reminds me of an insurance policy I had with the Hartford Ins. Co. a few years back. I usually pay my premium for the whole year to get a little discount but one year they raised my premium by almost $200.00 (I had no accidents or tickets) and when I called to ask them about the hike the guy on the other end told that "The had had a high number of claims in my area?" I never renewed the policy and I never talked to them again...

How about this Vic. My wife n I haven't received our federal income refund check yet that we filed in March. We get an interest check but the kicker is WE have claim the interest next year on the tax return! We get penalized by the federal government because of what going on.

The same thing goes for Social Security. Taxing SS payments is what St. Ronnie signed into law.
I never knew that. What year did that happen?
1983 popped in my head as I wrote that and holy cow, I was right!
I've never had to pay taxes on SS.
I bought a house which you can use for some deductions and was told, by CPA, that filing taxes was unnecessary as SS is NON-TAXABLE income.
Is this a state thing?
Jessie Johnson Looks as though everyone’s situation is different. Doesn’t look very “equality under the law” to me.
@@jessiejohnson6424 I live in PA where all retirement income is not taxed by the state but I do pay Federal Income Tax on SS & withdrawals from my IRA.
The truth brother, you speak it!
I lost my job bc of covid & I had to move out of my home state of California for the first time ever to a more affordable area. Because my address changed, EDD can no longer identify my identity, so I haven’t received anything since Aug 2nd. It’s been a struggle after having spent so much to move. 😓
@DyDyDy My Darling: Wow! So sorry about that! Just remember, you're not alone. Almost all of us are suffering, too! May God provide for you and protect you!
Hey I just want to echo and agree with everything Lisa May said. I wish you and EVERYONE affected by this ALL THE VERY BEST
Thank you both for the kinds words of encouragement 🤘🖤
Love you Vic and you are so right
Wait'll you go on Social Security, Vic... Same deal! You pay into SS the whole time you're working, then they TAX you on your SS income when you get old! **shakes head sadly**
Social Security (retirement) is non taxable income. You don't, necessarily, even need to file taxes on SS unless you have a job to help with the paltry payment so that you can afford food, meds and rent. The poorest of the poor are recipients of SS only.
Cat food anyone?
@@jessiejohnson6424 Actually, it **is** taxable, for anything over $25k. So, the poorest people don't have to pay taxes (which is true even before Social Security kicks in...). However, everyone else pays taxes.
@@DonnaMSchmid Yes ma'am. That was what I was trying to say.
Thank you for saying it better.
👍🏼👍🏼
Bravo!!! 👏👏👏 You tell 'em, Vlc! ♥️🇺🇸🇺🇸
It doesn’t make sense.. you already paid taxes with your own income, including in the income is unemploy coverage, they can’t tax you again! This whole thing doesn’t.. You started paying tax with ur income, but no it doesn’t end there, u pay tax with ur mtg, car ins, clothes, even pay taxes when you save money, then you pay taxes again at tax season? We basically slave for them? Where’s our return?
You are 100% right!
Ready to get more ticked off!!! How about i’ve been workn straight for twelve yrs and because I switched to another company who closed a few months in cuz of the pandemic i only get $37 after taxes...and what about the ppl who never use that unemployment money they been paying? Do they give them a lump sum when they retire? Hmm 🤔 also what about government taking a month long vacation in the middle of a crisis... now that’s incredible!!! You know just a little bit of salt to the wound...YEA SURE!!! 🤷♀️ I can’t even choose a summer vacation because that’s when the job has the most demand...never mind there be a crisis!!! Seriously Smh 🤦🏼♀️
Yes, that really sucks BIG TIME!
This is their 3rd month long vacation.
Uh.. Everything is life choices you mention. However the part of government on vacation while a crisis is always a little lost when one thinks about the logic.
KIT TSANG nothing wrong with the life choices mentioned here it just goes to show what one person is going thru which others might relate to regardless because many are going thru hardship...period...whether you want to empathize or not...your logic does not makes sense to me but that’s ok you are entitled to your opinion...but Vic couldn’t say it any better were not talkn the shop around the corner here were talkn about government who works for and should be serving the ppl (not the other way around) (btw isnt that what politicians say on they’re campaigns?) especially in a time of crisis where many can’t work even if they want to and that includes me where the one job i was able to get tx me on my first day and second day of work that there was not enough workload so on that note what choices are you talkn about when this pandemic is a global matter and let’s not forget ppl are dying but if you happen to not be affected with what’s goin on in the world don’t come here with your lack of compassion rather please keep your comments to yourself and maybe do some soul searching...wish you all the best
SO TRUE!!
I'm going through it here in Jersey. The governor refused to apply to the federal government for the extra $400 because apparently he doesn't want to have the pay it back. Unemployment in the United States has become a joke. It's sad and scary. What about all of the people who haven't even seen a check?! Friggin out for control
He doesn't have to pay it back. He's not applying for it because it's a political statement against the Republican Senators not willing to compromise with Pelosi on an aid package
Same in California. They took away my job and they won't even allow me to return to it. Now they cut unemployment which doesn't even cover basic living. Now we find out from the CDC that only 6% of covid deaths were actually strictly covid. They destroyed my livelihood for nothing and I still can't return to it... criminals are running our states and most of these morons here will vote for them again.
@@northernlights1287 I'm sorry that this is happening to you. Elections are ugly. We're just pawns in their game. It's horrifying.
@@michaelbravakis9197 BINGO
Thank You Vic !
At least unmemployment is being taxed on a on a federal level and not on a state level. yes. i confirmed this with my with my CPA.
Just wait awhile.
You are my Hero Vic!!!
The amount of spit on his dash must be incredible. I've been hit by exactly what he is talking about. We got hit with a tax bill for unemployment and caused a huge amount of pain. It made no damn sense to me.
"The amount of spit on his dash must be incredible." 😂😂😂
He might have splash guards in place...
Vic you hit the nail on the head! Keep up the work!
Well, Vic. start listening to Jimmy Dore. You are brothers in arms...
@@ArchilochusOfParos Jimmy is also funny, too. But dead serious when the situation calls for it!
Absolutely Love Vic!!! Lol ❤️ Truth To Power BABY!!
Hey Vic, please talk about the student debt crisis in America.
How the government can print trillions to give to Corporations but there is no money to get rid of the student debt crisis.
OR Medicare for All, OR the Green New Deal, OR free higher public education, etc. Like THINGS WE DESPERATELY NEED!!
AND fund neverending regime change wars!
It is the students debt. It is a trick to place these young people in debt and lie to them that the education they’re getting will somehow make them successful. We are being destroyed internally and financially.
Amen Vic! 4 months and my claim is still “pending” meanwhile I’m 3 months behind on rent because I can’t get to MY MONEY!
That’s what tics me off
It’s always been that way. Should feel lucky you “qualify” for it, without the pandemic going on most wouldn’t get it to begin with.
How does that make sense?
I love the TOV episodes when you talk about the working class and politics best! This episode was great. Now give us your take on voter suppression and what’s happening to the USPS!
Vic I love most of your videos but you are absolutely wrong here. The employee does not pay into unemployment. The employer does. Therefore the money that is received has not been taxed before. This would be taxable income. I think you're getting confused with Social Security
It looks like it depends on what state you live in. Typically, only employers pay SUTA tax.
However, employees in three states (Alaska, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania) are subject to state unemployment tax withholding. If you have employees in any of these three states, you will withhold the tax from their wages and remit the tax to the state. Employees will not handle this tax themselves.
@ Michael Bravakis actually there is a portion of payroll taxes that the employee pays. However, let's do the math there. It totals (SUI/SDI/FLA) approximately 310. A year. So IF one were to go on Unemployment they are getting a hell of allot more than that. In theory, not paid by the employee.
@ Michael Bravakis also would like to add the government should look at those who milk the system. There are quite allot of those.
@@cher8136 The vast majority don't cheat. They just need help in rough patches. Please focus on that instead.
@@lisamay5649 actually I don't even know if mine cheated at all, his abuse towards me really had nothing to do with cheating on me. I don't think or believe they all cheat. And if mine did he probably tried to get back together with his ex as she is just as crazy as him. Lol
Same with Social Security. They tax my SSC as income every year (after they automatically take out a chunk for Medicare) - that way I have to pay my CPA to add that in so they can recapture some of what they just paid me? Why not just take out a percentage before sending me the check so that I could bypass having to pay to send part of it back? The only reason I can figure why they do this would be if you are retired and cannot survive on SSC (and who could?), you have to keep working or do other things to supplement your income, which when combined allows them to take an even larger amount in income tax!
If the Democrats get power I can't even imagine how much more tax in general I'll be paying.
Kyle you don’t make enough 😂
This reminds me of an insurance policy I had with the Hartford Ins. Co. a few years back. I usually pay my premium for the whole year to get a little discount but one year they raised my premium by almost $200.00 (I had no accidents or tickets) and when I called to ask them about the hike the guy on the other end told that "The had had a high number of claims in my area?" I never renewed the policy and I never talked to them again...
Unemployment insurance is so lousy all around
You are RIGHT
I did some personal research on Bitcoin Investments and I've come to the conclusion that Bitcoin Investments is an easy means of making Money, so I wish to begin Investing on Bitcoins, can anyone help me?
Yes, you are right, I began investing on Bitcoins with the aim of making money, and it's has been very possible with the help of Robert Denis my Bitcoin analyst. I earned $20,000 last week trading with him
The rate at Which my profits accumulate on my trading platform makes me happy, and it's all because of Robert Denis. He's has been of great assistance to me in making money on Bitcoins.
Robert Denis really gave me a chance to become rich, I began investing on Bitcoins with $ 2000 as a beginner and earned $13,600 after the close of my first trading session with Robert.
Robert Denis is a very good Bitcoin analyst, he can help you make money on Bitcoins even as a novice just as he keeps helping me. I earned $8400 yesterday with his help.
@@nilskemmer1385 How do I communicate with Robert?

You're a good man Vic
Vic - I love these rants too. Just think we elect these people.
How about this Vic. My wife n I haven't received our federal income refund check yet that we filed in March. We get an interest check but the kicker is WE have claim the interest next year on the tax return! We get penalized by the federal government because of what going on.
U need to run for president.love your show keep preaching the truth
I'm a business owner and pay into unemployment insurance 52 weeks a year for everyone on our payroll. We were forced to close due to the pandemic. As an owner unemployment has only payed me 4 weeks out of the 10 weeks we were forced to be closed. THAT'S WHAT PISSES ME OFF!
Speaking the truth great video vic
how true is that!!
Good show could not agree more.
Preach Vic! I was wondering the same thing
Vic is "FOR" the people!!
❤️Some Vic he keeps it 💯for us 👍Thanks Vic keep up the good work 🤝
