Me: working full time just to make ends meet, not a lot of time for college and don't want to take on more than a year of my income as student loan debt that will take a decade or more to pay off.
Convicted criminal: all the free time, working on masters degree (possibly considerably subsidized, if not for free as there are various programs that provide college courses for free to inmates).
Good for them I guess. Rehabilitation is truly a great thing, doesn't make it sting any less though. I play by the rules and have to struggle to attempt to get ahead, they break the rules to the point of being ordered to live in a cage for a period of time and are afforded the opportunity of unlimited studying time and degree programs.
And before someone says "but their crime will make it hard for them to get a job" so does my bankruptcy from 7ish years ago. Anything dealing with money and companies won't touch you with a bankruptcy and anything requiring a security clearance wont touch you either.
