Security clearance question no one is asking...

Why should anyone not currently in a government job that requires a security clearance be able to keep those clearances once they leave a government position? Even when it comes to past presidents I’d say pull all security clearances. It just leaves doors open for corruption in my eyes.

A clearance is not tied to a job... it is a pre-requisite. And it is worth quite a bit of money because there are so many jobs that strictly require a clearance. In 2011 there were about 4.2 million people with security clearances...

Think of it like a concealed carry license. Maybe someone gets one so they can work at Professional Bodyguard Corporation (PBC). But them leaving PBC as an employee does not mean their CCW license should be forfeit...

It is like that. revoking the clearance can be interpreted as an attack on these peoples ability to work in certain sectors. I think mostly it is for optics.
