“Good plan: protect criminals and criminalize business (rolleyes)”

I have mixed feelings about this... And as someone who has never done anything wrong, I think I can speak to this. /s

Seriously, all of us have broken the law. Some have been caught and some of us have not. (yet) If a person has been caught and has paid “his debt to society”, why should it be an issue? If he hasn’t, then why is he still not in jail?

Just asking...

“There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible to live without breaking laws.”
— Ayn Rand, “Atlas Shrugged”

Your point is well taken. However, shouldn't the hiring decision be up the employer and not the government?
