I am having a very exasperating discussion with a teacher who actually approves of CRB checks on writers. What makes them so special, he asks?
His motivation seems to be: "If we teachers are subjected to these checks, then it is only fair that everybody else should be subjected to the same bureaucratic claptrap that neither protects children nor effectively vets adults."
This suggests malice and class envy.
If you find shit on the floor do you clear it up, or do you spread it around so everybody gets a bit of it, so that equality of misery is more equally distributed? Is that his twisted idea of social justice?
He reminds me of a certain character in George Orwell's Animal Farm, which he has not read, you will not be surprised to hear.

THE VOICE OF REASON Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
