that got me curious and after skimming some stuff the past half hour or so seems like it's the same for things like federal expungement and the same problem. Like you said, social contract, so lots of minor stuff has become a life sentence the same way and there's no expungement still as if felonies only cover like cartel conspiracies or something. State wise it's just lottery as to what protections you got if anything

I ain't no lawyer and I kind of opened a box I can't see the bottom of all on a sudden. More I skim the worse it seems and now I'm confused nobody seems to care who could do something about it given how abused I'm seeing people say it is. The public records and stuff I mean. Like would an apartment care if your federal misdemeanor or felony was littering at a national park or something, or just see "federal" and treat you like a wanted terrorist? Just leaving people to rot by chance seems fucked up to me
