Just my opinion, but I think American people or even other countries do not like to see unemployment rate go up. Economically, when unemployment goes up from its natural rate of around 5%, people are discouraged from spending their money. It causes firms to cut outputs, which leads to more unemployment. So unemployment is not so good thing. When someone from other country tries to come into the U.S. to have a job, then that foreigner is taking what is to be a potential American job. Of course I could be wrong, but other thing is that countries have to think about immigration. If say such a firm that you are employed in closes and so do most firms in same sector. What are you going to do? Are you going back or staying? Staying is what most people would do and it is not what the country wants. Therefore, they have to consider many facts and possible downturns.

no. Unemployment is paid from a tax account that an employer pays into yearly. When an employee files a claim, the funding that they receive is deducted from that employers fund. Your rate of taxation for the following year all depends on the number of claims the previous year. Meaning, if an employer has no UI claims in 2005, then his UI tax rate will be lower in 2006. Also, depending on the state, some employers are exempt from paying into their UI tax fund if they have 50 employees or less.

At the worst point of the Great Depression, in 1933, one in four Americans who wanted to work was unable to find a job. Further, it was not until 1941, when World War II was underway, that the official unemployment rate finally fell below 10%.\n\nYou know you are right I scanned dozens of papers and they all reference the percentage and not the actual 12 million that I am guessing :-)
