Privacy laws are crippling the nation:
1.LE is not privy to records - medical (mental), education and even some criminal.
2. Parents are not allowed to see the grades of their college students.
3. Employers are not allowed to even inquire about an applicants attendance, quality of work, disciplinary action, etc. - only, did that person work for you and when did they leave.
4. and much more.

ridiculous

1.LE is not privy to records - medical (mental), education and even some criminal.

My education and medical records aren’t the government’s business.

2. Parents are not allowed to see the grades of their college students.

Sure they are. Just say: “I’m cutting off the money if you don’t show me your grades.”

3. Employers are not allowed to even inquire about an applicants attendance, quality of work, disciplinary action, etc. - only, did that person work for you and when did they leave.

Nonsense. Employers may ask all they want. Granted, the former employer might not want to disclose for their own reasons. But that’s a perceived liability issue, not a privacy issue. I’ve been asked, and I’ve answered honestly.
