If the taxpayers have to pay for and keep up the baby, we pay for one but sterilize the momma if she expects the taxpayers to keep up a second one....same for the baby daddy.
Say Guys, what a great idea, then like China if you want more then 1 child and have lots of money the sky is the limit. There seems to be problems over this policy, those that loose their only child and had been state sterilized now had to face growing old with no child to care for them in old age. So much for Ancestor Worship. No one to bring food once a year to their graves.
So why not sterilise the male humans on State demand. First we start with the teen age boys that become fathers at 15, if they cannot support that baby, keep him from knocking up 7-8 other woman by the time they hit 21 and cannot support them either.
Any male that is 3 months late on child support arrested and clipped, it is the duty of the father to help provide for his kids, if he cannot do so insure there will be no more he cannot support.
All this is put on the woman, few females can survive giving birth to a dozen kids, one male can father hundreds +
Oh what fun, now the question of children with obvious problems, physical. Even the very wealthy receive State Aid for a handicapped child, same as the poorest among us. To make the law work fair to all, Post Preterm abortion
This will insure only the poor have healthy kids, the wealthy will have to hide their children and pay off their doctors.
IIRC the South for years until the late 1970's had this progressive idea, sterilized the blacks and a few whites that were prone to criminal activity, or just slow to learn. They seemed to consentrate on the teen black females for some reason. ABOMONATION in our time.
Old Jo Kennedy had the right idea, his daughter was an embarrassment to the family, she fell in love with a married man. [ WAS she pregnant?] Off to an asylum for her, after 20 shock treatments she still loved her boyfriend---so a lobotomy to teach her a thing or two. I am sure the lesson learned by her sisters kept them on the straight and narrow.
Oh yes Johnny, genetic engineering in some form has been around for quite a while, we only question when this EVIL effects us, family or close friend.
Where does religion come in here, those that are devout are not going to tell the Pope to go to hell.
Where do widows come in here that remarry and want a baby from their new husband.
What about those that after years of trying to have a child Adopt and a year later a surprise, wife is pregnant with triplets.
What about the Virgin Mary, had the town Elders know she was an unwed mother before she married Joseph she would have been stoned to death.
The Smithsonian, founder himself born to an unmarried woman spent his live being shunned by some in society as a bas*ard.
I have no problem paying taxes that help out the children of anyone. Children are the future, from the worse or the best family's, way back a poor young man living in a shack, no running water, only heat was a fireplace that he read books by at night. Some called him strange in looks and actions but we venerate him, Abe Lincoln.
Where would we be if a little black boy raised as a slave had not become interested in the lowly Peanut.
Any crap about population control begins and ends with the male ability to hit and run.
Some of this is extreme sarcasm, other black humor, on to frustration on the patriarchal system that puts the problems of population on the woman. The pill for woman and various IUDS that can cause problems for some woman, has been around for 50 years, So why have the male scientist not YET come up for a pill for men.
OH yes they are too busy making Viagra to allow men to have even more sex.
Balderdash----- I AM not a feminist, I just want procreation to not be blamed on some poor woman when the male is the only way a female can get pregnant. Men have the choice to spread their seed, all to often they are expected to, the female is always to blame.
OK Men I expect to get bashed big time, What I want men Clipped, oh crap what happens to their man hood???
That Vesta is a crazy Bitch, I can anticipate this.
