I'm sure this has been asked millions of times since the birth of the Internet, but what do all you think about this one?
It's your life, do what you feel like with it.
I want to go out, rob an armored car and succeed without getting injured or killed. Oh, and I want no negative repercussions of an kind. You can't always do what you feel like.
this brings another problem, a major increase of population, lack of food, jobs, homes and so on.
What's the best solution to this? Mandated sterilization. After a female gives birth to one or two children, sterilize her. That way, it's now impossible for the population to grow exponentially.
I honestly do not think there is a "meaning" to life. We're more less here to reproduce, survive and continue our species, just like every other living organism on Earth.
Why the female and not the male? Isn't that a little sexist?
For simplicity purposes, it would be easier to focus on just the females. The surgery could be performed immedietly following the birth of the child. That way they can recover from the surgery and the childbirth at the same time. You're essentially killing two birds with one stone. It wouldn't make sense to have the woman AND the man both laid up somewhere recovering. Too counterproductive.
I believe that the "one family, one child" situation in China is a little over the top, and there really isn't any evidence that shows that it's been effective over the last 3 decades. I also believe that any attempt to create a negative population growth will ultimately fail. I think we need to focus on why populations in developing countries grow rapidly in comparison to developed counties. Even here in the US, the folks who are giving birth to 3+ children are generally those who shouldn't be having kids in the first place because they aren't financially stable or just completely irresponsible. More often than not, families with 3+ children are in lower income brackets. I agree with you with most of what you said. More funding and mandated higher education would be ideal, but it would be too costly to force people to go to school, especially those who really don't want to be there in the first place. I agree that mandated sterilization is probably a little extreme and would basically infringe on people's God given rights to procreate. However, taking away the benefits for having 30 kids isn't. How about taking away the tax breaks? Take away the assistance programs and force people to be accountable for their actions? Force them to pay for all of their children's necessities. Come to think of it, that would just worsen the problem and keep poverly level folks in poverty. I guess it's really a catch-22 isn't it? I'll stick with my mandated sterilization theory. It seems to be the most logical and economical. Too much critical thinking too early in the morning.
