Some say the government has no business getting involved with the reproductive choices of people?
Pol Suggests Paying Poor Women to Tie Tubes
[...]
His idea -- giving $1,000 to poor women to undergo reproductive sterilization by Fallopian tube ligation -- is stirring up controversy among some medical professionals, who say that the proposal is offensive and smacks of long-discredited eugenics programs.
LaBruzzo has also suggested other controversial ideas: paying poor men to get vasectomies and giving tax incentives for college-educated wealthy couples to have more children.
[...]
I say the government is already involved by virtue of supporting these people. non-welfare parents supporting kids have a say in what their kids do before they hand out money, no? Why should this situation be any different.
Now don't get me wrong. Some people do need welfare. Some used to make their own way and due to certain circumstances can't any more.
But at the same time, there are thousands of deadbeats who do nothing but work the system. They know they don't have to work, so they don't even try. More babies = more benefits paid.
Look. If all you want to do is fuck and are too stupid to take precautions, take the $1,000 and run. If you can't afford kids, don't make them.
