Is in the news for hiring felons. I didn't know it was against the law for people who paid their dues to work.

1. It's not. But if I knew that convicted felons would be at my home

to ask questions, I wouldn't let them in. In fact, my Dad hired someone who had been in jail to do some work in the yard. He repaid the kindness by robbing us.

3. Your right, felons should be forced to get their food from God

This is why I'm against ownership of private property. If nobody owned anything thing there would be nothing to steal.

2. Only convicted white-collar criminals are allowed to work.

Did you get that memo? I'll get you a copy. Don't forget the cover sheets on your TPS reports.

4. Didn't one of the airlines regularly employ currently-serving convicts?

It's in Michael Moore's film "The Big One."

Nobody seemed to bitch about it back then... guys sitting in prison, taking down your address, phone number and credit card info in order to secure your flight reservations. :eyes:
