Re: Regulated human reproduction
[ QUOTE ]
My argument for two basically goes that, based upon the principle that people should have the freedom to do what they want provided that it harms no one else, raising a child in destitute conditions is harmful to that child, and the child should be protected from a shitty existence. [/ QUOTE ] This makes a rather arrogant assumption that no existence is better than a meager existence. This is something no living person can fully justify since so human can comprehend never existing. Also this assumption could then be used to justify genocide. This is a dark path to be followed. |

Re: Regulated human reproduction
Who gets to define what is the poverty level? Oh, that's right, it's the government who does that.

I wish such things were 100 years behind us. And if I had to guess, I don't think it will be 100 years before we see such state-sponsored eugenics programs again. |

Some other countries guilty of this: USA, Finland, Denmark, Estonia, Switzerland, Iceland, Singapore, Austrailia, and Norway. The more I learn about history the darker it becomes. |

Canada and Sweeden, at least, I think. [/ QUOTE ] Sweden officially abandonded eugenics programs in 1975. I don't think there was any cases of it after mid-fifties or so. I probably should read more about it, it's not exactly the most glorious part of Swedens history. |

Re: Regulated human reproduction
I vote NO, also this isn't science fiction it is very easy and very possible for government to impose these types of restrictions.
