The unemployment rate continues to rise and employers' continue to make background checks a condition of employment.
Why would you not hire someone with a record?
This individual could possibly be your most productive and reliable employee, but instead you hire the individual without a record and they quit the job in a month. Everyone makes mistakes and the only thing that distinguishes most of the people in the world is that those with the charges got caught and those without them, didn't get caught. Denying someone of a job when their charge is old or irrelevant to the job's skill requirement is totally insane. America says that everyone should make an honest day's pay, but it should say that everyone should be given the chance to make an honest day's pay. We live in a judgemental world from judging on race and sexuality to criminal records. Jobs are based on skill record not criminal record, though a pedafile shouldn't work with children and an embezzeler shouldn't work at a bank, an embezzeler shouldn't be denied a job as a bus driver because of an embezzelment charge. This is simply not logical and needs to change.
Amazingly, America has more than other countries, but lacks in giving to American citizens. Hurricane Wilma hit Cancun, Mexico in 2005 and Cancun has stood rebuilt and fully operating again since 2006. This is a great accomplishment considering that Hurricane Katrina destroyed the Gulf Coast, New Orleans, and affected surrounding areas in 2005, and New Orleans and the Gulf Coast still remain "ghost towns." America has time to cost America billions of dollars fighting a senseless war, millions of dollars to pay oil executives and professional athletes, but not a second of time or any money to contribute to rebuliding the livelihood of the American citizens' affected by this event. Seems logical? Not at all, just typical America.
Many of Americans' jobs and construction contracts have been affected by the acceptance of lower wages and lower contract bids from illegal workers. So should employers who employ illegal immigrants be penalized?
It would've been logical to enforce the law before the American unemployment rate became an issue. We have allowed too many leniencies with the illegal population and it is insane. Why does our government decide to start "prevention plans" after the problems occur? Why are all of the laws of our country so outdated and manipulated?
What this says about our country is that the companies and housing authorities that we have helped and are helping grow by the spending of our earnings would rather employ and house an illegal immigrant who may be using multiple social security numbers and residing several illegals in a place of residence than to give a convicted felon who is a U.S. citizen the opportunity to gain a decent paying job and place to reside.
