Fold. Since your stack is so short that you have no chance of making the UTG raiser fold, whom you have to respect (unless your read dictates otherwise), you cant shove, and calling half your stack with KJ off suit is absolutely terrible.

Why even wonder? This is an obvious case where you should fold and play the next hand. KJ off suit is an extremely weak hand. Pocket 2's have you beat currently. I can't see a reason to call almost 1/2 of your stack to try to see a flop with that hand. The raiser won't fold if you push and I will almost guarantee you are behind.

Once again poke, stack size stack size stack size.
This would be OVER half your remaining stack just to see a flop with one of the most overplayed hands in hold em. Lets take a moment to see what KJ is absolutely dominated by
AA,KK,QQ,JJ,AK,AQ,AJ,KQ.
Now how about the hands you are BEHIND. Oh god this could go along way.
22,33,44,55,66,77,88,99,TT
so there are 17 hand which you are behind and I would almost GURANTEE that your aopponent has one of those hands. Its not even a question. So quite simply this is a fold all day, everyday.
