And many people will re-offend, just so they can at least have food, water, shelter, and clothes on their backs, all at tax-payer's expense.
Exactly -and why all records should be erased the moment you have paid your dues. Of course, there are some repeat-offenders, but there has to be a better way to deal with them separately.
Anyway, just speaking from my own behalf. At the CEO/Exec level the competition is tough, so a criminal-record of any kind automatically shuts you out when, inevitably, compared to clean records. You know how it goes:
"Lessee, candidate Jackson. Professor, 20 years of experience, Nobel-prize, national hero, 10 different recommendations, and a jail sentence of unpaid parking-bills. That won't do. Send the regular thank-you message."
