Sorry to pick on you here: but why is being a felon considered a negative, as opposed to being convicted of something that isn't a felony?
Does the IRS tax your business differently if you employ a felon?
I mean, I get it: someone did something shitty at one point and got caught and convicted. In an absolute sense they're 'less reliable' than someone that hasn't been convicted.
I only ask because I've worked some blue jobs with ex-cons and felons (some of which were exceptionally bright) who were stuck where they were because of some dumb choice they made 10, 15, 20 years ago.
I have done this before and applied for the tax credit. The employee passed all his screens wonderfully and his ex-conviction history did not faze me at all.
