breeding like rabbits

[The Grand Nudger]

Yes but not setting any limits and growing large amounts of children to fend for themselves has come to show devastating effects on entire generations of overly populated underly educated and massively unemployed generations of people whose parents have no long term planning for massive populations of people and can't provid medical care or social services to its people.

Wouldn't argue at all - but that doesn't change the nature of the suggestion. The shittier conditions are the fewer options one has, strength-in-numbers grant more opportunity for the individual lineage - and generally doesn't concern itself for the overall population. Perhaps it would be best if a certain group of people auto-euthanize their family line - but why not the wealthy and well to do, rather than the poor? After all, aren't they commonly the ones consuming the vast majority of whatever resources are available while simultaneously contributing to or establishing the conditions of poverty for the "others"?

Having children is an awfully convoluted way to go about securing money - there are easier ways, and considering the pitiful sums involved - I think that you may just be falling for some common conservative spin on this one Luckie. The most heinous "overpopulation" issues occur in places with no social safety net to speak of anyway. I don't think your suggestion is really an accurate representation of their motives. -I think- they're just trying to survive, to live life and do what human beings (and all life) does. I'm not even willing to -suggest- that they stop doing that, no matter how well intentioned my reasons may be.
