It makes sense that it would. But should it also make it difficult for him to find housing, to benefit from aid programs like food stamps, or to flip burgers for minimum wage?
If John Steele can't get housing, can't get food, and can't get a job, but is also supposed to obey the law on penalty of more jail time or another felony on his record, what's he likely to do?

- nojvek 10y agoSuppose someone is a felon, can the average Joe run a background check to know what crime was committed? I.e would happily hire someone who was caught in possession of marijuana or a bit of drugs, but not a pedophile, mobster or serial killer.
- djrogers 10y agoPoint of clarification, a felony fraud conviction wouldn't prevent him from getting food stamps or any other aid. There are 6 states that have restrictions on drug felons getting food stamps, perhaps that's where you're claim comes from?
