- rtpg 7y agoHell, a background check will pull up people with earlier criminal convictions (which, given our prison systems generation of recidivism is probably an unfair filter but one that rules out a lot of people in organized crime)
- pasabagi 7y agoIsn't recidivism the kind of filter that causes people to become recidivist, though?
- braythwayt 7y agoAbsolutely. It’s one of the reasons that the school-to-prison pipeline is so profitable for private business. The younger you put the “Mark of Cain” on a citizen, the sooner they become a revenue opportunity.
