I can’t believe I used to admire Rand Paul. He supports Federal interference in State criminal justice matters and coddling criminals by giving them light sentences, clean records, voting rights and preferences in hiring.
Paul clearly hates law abiding Americans as strongly as any Liberal.

When you commit a crime in the US and are caught you pay. You pay by going to prison, you pay by being on probation, often for years after you get out. When you are a an ex-con it is nearly impossible to get a job. If you commit a drug crime and you do the time, why should society force you to live a life a crime? If you have a felony conviction that follows you around nobody will hire you. When do you stop paying for doing something stupid? If your record follows you you never stop being hounded by society.
If you do the crime, do the time and get back into society.
Simple solution, don’t commit the crime. Plenty of felons get work, and there is NOTHING wrong with it being more difficult for them.
If you want more jobs for felons, seal the border and deport every illegal alien in America. They steal jobs from those who have the hardest time finding work (unskilled, uneducated and felons).
