Most of the stuff that government does when fiddling in the private sphere with good intentions, backfires in unforeseen consequences.
Online presence is a bigger worry for a lot of people. A few goofy remarks on Facebook and the hapless job seeker will never know what hit him (or passed over him).
Driving the economy and business down into the dump is their clear objective -— and it increases dependence on government handouts (and thusly they believe more people will vote for them). Almost nobody is hiring already today, due in large measure to the impending Obamacare mandates and other tax increases they have scheduled on horizon. Being unable to ascertain if the job applicant is a mass murderer or serial rapist is yet a further barrier to hiring - as no responsible employer will take such people into their places of business. More and more unemployment, worse and worser economy... America wake up or go down the toilet. Vote in November! Campaign and vote! Please don’t sit it out. We tried that last time and look what happened to our country. Thank you.
