    It’s like if you lost your job because you were convicted of a crime. That’s not additional sentencing, that’s just a consequence of your actions.

    The difference there is the state is doing both things for the same crime, and employment is a conditional agreement.

    Without any information, this is just idle conspiracy theorising.

    Blindly trusting that the government would do the right thing requires a severe lack of understanding of history.

    It’s not even about politicians, since from the sound of it this came from regular govt officials, not elected politicians.

    Elected officials are the ones who hold regular govt officials accountable.
