listen, i agree. there was a time when companies didn’t do background and credit checks and the world didn’t fall apart. it’s a different time though, with lawsuits and all. if a person of color is fired for stealing they can now file a discrimination suit. better to not risk putting a person in your business with deep financial issues.

also, in the end, it should be up to the employer and business owner to decide what works best for his company. i’m sure the owner of a trucking company understands better than anyone that his long haul truckers need a good driving record vs a great credit score.

the feds have no business in making another regulation and again, it will be another layered law with loopholes for the businesses that can afford to pay.

Agree. The world was actually a better place because people went more on trust and related in a healthier way.

Because Gov't wasn't so large employers had to find competency in themselves. They were better judges of character and didn't have to resort to background checks.
