That's really no different from saying when you are caught stealing and put in jail that you're no longer able to make your living by stealing because you're in jail for stealing.

Just about any profession can become a vehicle for theft when you are a thief at heart.

But yeah, I expected some right wing judge to demand unemployment benefits for pickpockets in the pokey, so long as it was in the name of the MAGA cause.

Such fragile egos they have. Maybe we're looking at an entirely new genre of human collective behavior, though they themselves aren't collective at all which is their undoing of course.
