It's a cunundrum. On one hand, I agree with shee. Why would we allow the aforementioned types of people to have MORE kids? yet, on the other hand, who are we to ALLOW it in the first place. Free means free, right? then, again, if we stand back and watch these welfare abusers and foster care kid generators make more and more babies, don;t they then impinge on OUR rights? I mean, we are the ones supporting them through the state and federally funded foster care programs.
I honestly don;t know how I feel about this. My gut says sterilize them permanently after the second offense..... my brain says, Shut up, gut! once they start that shit, we won't be able to stop them.
I agree that if you cannot take care of your child, you should not have more. I also agree that the state should not have ANY control over our bodies.
I guess in the end it comes right down to personal freedom. When you have to guess, err on the side of caution. In my mind, the loss of control over our bodies is worse than the scenario described in the beginning of this thread.
i'm glad I'm not King.
