If you do not want to hire Bliss fair enough, if some school does fair enough. They take responsibility for their choice.

If the fans want to boo or boycott over PED's fair enough.
At that point the owners and union will need to make some choices and live with them.

1. I am not a Randite. She had some good ideas and some bad ideas, but she was definitely a "my way or the highway" philosopher, so I choose the highway.
2. I did not say, nor do I believe, that the government should force anyone to do anything. OTOH, the government is all about force, and nothing but force. As for who pays, it's the pedophile's problem, so he pays.
3. In the end, there are four choices, it seems to me, as to what to do with these folks: help them conquer their pedophilia, incarcerate them for life, execute them, or expel them from society. That last is pretty much a non-choice. Where would we send them? The second and third I don't believe we have the right to do.
4. I don't much like the whole concept of government licensing at all.

Once upon a time it was Australia, I guess because it was one of the most remote places on Earth and an island.

Maybe we should step up the space program so we can use the Moon that way.

Heinlein already covered that one. B-)
