@InfiniteMick posted...Ever read "Among the hidden"? A military coup occurs in the US and this exact law you're suggesting is put into place. The protagonist is a third child from a somewhat poor family. There's 7 books in the series overall, it's written by Margaret Peterson Haddix.

This poll makes no sense anyway, every western country except France has a fertility rate below 2 it's not only unethical it's also useless.

No.
Just because i dont want to police people like that. but if societal attitudes changed to having less children, great. |

Have as many kids as you want, but understand that if you can't provide for them the government will become involved deeply in your life in an uncomfortable way. This will include taking away your children if you suck at parenting, and charging you for their health and welfare.

One of the friends of the protag, a 3rd child from a wealthy family starts at protest on capitol hill consisting of 3rd kids. There's about 1,000 of them. They're all gunned down by the military. Every single one.

We need to stop it from being overpopulated before we start using up resources faster than we can get them.

Gotta make this a worldwide law in order for it to mean anything. A US law won't stop Ethiopians from having 6 kids.

Not at this moment, although there may come a time in the future where in the interests of humanity we just have to start sterilising everyone after two

Yeah, it will, and then people will starve. And them It will happen again, and again, unless laws to prevent it are put into effect. We should stop it now, before that happens.

Question is, if one of your kids dies before they turn 18, are you allowed a 3rd?

Unpopular post time: Too many stupid, uneducated trash are having kids. Mark me for moderation, I don't give a fuck.
If I had my way, people of Intelligence would get massive tax breaks, grants, & low interest loans for having kids. Society as a whole would be better off. I'm all for a social safety net, but you have the lowest common denominators pumping out kids like a factory. And our tax dollars are subsidizing this unsustainable behavior.

Intelligent people don't have kids because they have been convinced by liberals that overpopulation and global warming will make the future a hellscape. The people most likely to be talked out of having kids are the most intelligent. It's the least intelligent people that ignore these narratives. Good job liberals at ensuring idiocracy.

I was just reading a story about 3 men in Tennessee who have 80 kids with over 45 different women and zero child support is being paid to any of the women...

I'm not opposed to some sort of population control, I like that very much and would totally instate that. Forced sterilization after 2 kids.
Of course I'm aware that opens the door to abuse but the goal of slowing and stabilizing the worldwide population of humanity is a good and necessary one no matter how emotional it makes people. What China is did is smart and they have balls for doing it.

Maybe you should investigate your craptastic education system before hating the students it created.

None of the choices, people can have as many children as they want, as long as they can support them.

InfiniteMick posted...Topu_Kek posted...InfiniteMick posted...Topu_Kek posted...@InfiniteMick posted...Ever read "Among the hidden"? That's not what the book's about, though. I read it a couple of years ago; it's an interesting little book (very quick read). Then I Googled the synopses of the rest of the the series. The other books didn't sound as good, but I haven't read them, so I can't really say. It's hardly a unique concept in speculative fiction, though. Anne McCaffrey (the "Dragon Lady") wrote a book with a similar premise. The illegal third children survive by stealing the ID bracelets of others (often deceased) because that's the only way they can eat. (The bracelets are how they interact in the world, including accessing their funds.) In Lois Lowry's The Giver the main character's family has to get special permission to take home a third baby. Each family normally is "assigned" only two, but the father works in the medical field and has some special expertise or something; I don't remember exactly. And those are just off the top of my head.

Overpopulation isn't really a problem at the moment in the U.S. but I could support public programs creating awareness about overpopulation concerns in the future. In terms of limiting the birth rate, it's already in decline in the U.S. so it doesn't really matter that much.

I'm gonna have to go with yes, give them prison time and sterilize them. Yes, I know I'm a terrible person, but at this point population control is the only way we can prevent overpopulation. i don't think anyone know what the answer is to families having more children than they can support, and i'm not sure that's what this topic is about, but i'm pretty sure whatever answer we eventually settle on will disgust some people. but whatever way you slice, there are plenty of us that aren't happy we wind up paying for other peoples' kids. That shit isn't right. |

I'd support throwing the Duggars in prison. Not necessarily because of all the spawn they've released over the years, but because they're legitimately bad people.
No to a ban on having more kids though.

I'm not opposed to some sort of population control, I like that very much and would totally instate that. Forced sterilization after 2 kids. Not really great when your argument boils down to "for the greater good." The best thing would be better sex education, free or at least extremely cheap contraceptives, including easy free access to a morning after pill. I would also say allowing one free or heavily subsidized tube tying if a woman wanted that. I also would consider perhaps less tax incentives for any children beyond beyond two. But the garbage you're proposing is pure authoritarianism, and is not only far to intrusive government meddling, but ripe for abuse and bastardizing of the original intent.

Another regressive fan of population replacement I see.
BTW just to maintain a population at it's current level you need a replacement rate of 2.1 children per woman. And you've seen what population control had done to china and your starting to see what lack of children is doing to places like Europe and Japan. |

White America is barely having children as is.
Meanwhile we're importing foreigners who have loads of children.

No, it should not be illegal but the government shouldn't shower you with money or support you because your a baby factory.

You should be able to have as many kids as you can afford.
There's some really good arguments for sterilization, but I don't see any in this poll.
