Encouraging more abortions? A very cheap shot. Where did I say I encouraged abortions? I said it is the woman's right to control her own body. You think the two are equivalent? > I'm pro-choice, but abortion > is not the way to head off global over-population.

There was a time in subsistence agriculture, when more children made sense. At 6 billion and growing, it doesn't, but politicians would rather screw the world, and keep their campaign finances intact from the religious right, who expect to go up in a "Rapture" anyway. One child per family, or bonuses for childless couples, and heavy graduated taxes for more than one child. Something has to be done, but our leaders seem to be in the pockets of people who are more worried about this quarters profits, than in the fate of the world. -- - Billy "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Arn3lF5XSUg http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Zinn/HZinn_page.html
