    Why did Fortune publish this article in their “Success” section?

        Can Mass. residents not vote if incarcerated?

          Mass. residents do not have voting rights while incarcerated, but they can vote again once their sentence is served.

      Choking an employee who wanted to quit and chasing an employee in your car seems pretty egregious.

    This right here is absolutely why the GOP is so vocal about “illegal immigrants” yet never mentions implementing harsh penalties for business owners who hire these same people.

    They want a permanent underclass of people who they can exploit and have them remain vulnerable to deportation if they “step out of line”.

    These people are scum.
