Topic: What would you think if | |
---|---|
the government placed a limit on how many children you could have to control the population. (*Addnote - this could be on the horizon in our lifetime.)

damn there goes the future brady bunches

Even though I am to old to have more kids, It would seriously irritate me!

That is already occurring in China! I believe that changes will need to occur quickly in how we utilize resources before this does occur for us. I would accept that law if it meant an easier existence for people (in regards to resources)

Sounds like a plan to me.

I don't think the government should tell people how many children they can have, BUT, people who have a crap-load of kids are just creating problems down the road. One day when the earth is even more overpopulated than it already is, starvation will affect far many more people. Those people are our descendants, so make wise choices.
On the other hand, maybe the movie Soilent Green will end up being a reality. Well it won't be that bad if they just made everyone with an IQ lower than 100 into food. That would solve a lot of problems. |

just curious...is this birth only or both birth and adopted?
|
|
|
|
In China, aren't you only allowed one?
|
|

|
Oh yeah Wyatt, cause our Government has such an unblemished record of being fair!
|
|
|

Yeah, not in the U.S. We are already up in arm on reproductive rights and stuff. So suddenly limiting us would make people mad.
I'm doing my part by not having kids. Okay, I admit, I wanted them, but if I didn't by a certain age, I wasn't going to have any. I'm not going to my child's high school graduation when I'm nearly 60. |

It might make more sense to just control who is allowed to multiply :)

In China, aren't you only allowed one? Yep, they are trying to achieve negative population growth. |

Oh yeah Wyatt, cause our Government has such an unblemished record of being fair! Fair has nothing to do with it. This is still the most free country in the world because the people keep it that way. |

It might make more sense to just control who is allowed to multiply :) I think a good 75% (if not more) of Americans should not be allowed to multiply. I know I've said this many, many times, but people just keep getting dumber and dumber, and also more and more shallow. It's like most of the younger people are just plastic (metaphorically) and are manufactured in some sort of factory. The inhuman creation station. |

Some people need a limit and some people should'nt be allowed to have any! I'm sick of all the child abuse!
|
|
|
|
Yeah - they should definitely control WHO not how many. You need license to drive a car, HELL, you need a license to have a dog....but they'll let any asshole be a father.....
