Very common in southern states. It used to be in Virginia

Virginia is having some serious problems too but that from day capacity not systemic design.

It used to be next to impossible to collect on unemployment in Virginia. First it was strongly discouraged as being "on the dole" and "lazy". Second if your former employee protested they almost always won. I don't know of anyone who won a contested claim until I did in 2008. I'm just saying I was shocked when I won mine.

I don't think it's legally a thing but "right to work" states are very tough on anyone collecting on the insurance they paid for.
