    Ok, so there is a lot of thought and context behind this but for now I will leave it open. Do you feel that procreation is a human right or should ir be moderated/regulated?

    To add controversy, one could argue that with the right to have a child being a privelege rather than a right, 1400 children would not be the subject of a *****philia and abuse investigation.

    The world needs ugly people, or how would DMW get laid?!

    But seriously, if we regulated childbirth, then what's left of our fabricated freedom is gone. I mean, once we start saying only beautiful, intelligent, Newcastle supporting people can have children, then we're going to face a riot from the ugly, flea-ridden mackems we've just neutered <ok>


    It's an interesting topic, because as we learned from Freakenomics, legalization of abortion in america had a significant impact on crime rates over the preceding decades, so if we stopped people not in the ideal little-house-on-the-prairie-situation raising kids, then we're probably going to go a long way to solving a whole host of societies underlying problems, but we're also imposing a threshold of living means, a threshold that would surely rise in subsequent years and leave perfectly suitable parents behind, and it would need to be operated by a heartless machine that picked and choosed worthy parents, before inevitably turning on humans and sparking an apocalypse only mrTiote and James Cameron have forseen.

    It would actually alter the course of our evolution forever, and maybe not in a good way by slimming genetic diversity. The human population is so successful because our breeding is not regulated. The simple truth is, no matter the scummy nature of the person producing the semen, that semen might potentially contain half the zygotes of a perfect genius foetus. It might have a scummy upbringing, on the scummy breadline, but it could still do something amazing with it's life.

    I might completely have missed the point of this whole exercise <ok>

    Social and society tinkering have been bad enough with the recent Labour party plan to change the face of our country by allowing wholesale immigration and building a benefits dependent underclass, we now reap the benefits of that plan, whilst there is a kind of Utopian Ideal in Rolands layout it would be administered by humans and that would be its downfall.

    Yeah I was going to mention that but it hasn't always worked and what do you do when there is more than one, state sponsored infanticide? they also, as with the Indian Subcontinent, have an issue with the female children being valued far less than a male child.
