Prisoners re-enter society

[Kevin]

Poverty doesn't lead to them committing crimes. Them being criminal douchebags leads to them committing crimes.

I don't feel the least bit sorry for a criminal who goes to prison who has a tough life thereafter. As an employer, I have the right and maybe even a duty to be informed as to whether my employees are violent felons or people who are likely to steal money from me.

Typically, if someone is in prison, it's only because they got caught. They likely committed quite a few other crimes for which they were not caught. Being an ex-con shouldn't give you any special rights or free money. Karma is a bitch.

There are plenty of ex-cons who choose to be gainfully employed law abiding citizens. Life is about choices. Don't make dumb choices.
