Should people be licensed to procreate? If not, why not?!

by IsraeliteRian84 Posted April 25, 2008 01:02:23

I say license to drive...license to procreate!

Children are a blessing from "God", but if you are required to have a license to drive, why would you not be required to have a license to have children?. Sex is easy, most anyone can do it, but what about the consequences????.

This post has nothing to do with the NWO, or the population control agenda of any group.

It is just a personal thought...

There are some that abuse the system, and I as a taxpayer am tired of paying for it. Some just make babies to milk the welfare system. If you are on welfare for a long period of time and not working to get off it and already have 2 children, I say sterilize them.

There are lots of people in this world who just should NOT be having kids.

it'll make lots of people from having so many children and it'll make sure that those who ever have children will stay as a family

It might sound like a good idea consider all the people who have kids that shouldn't but, consider for a moment what kinds of discrimination could take place if licensing was required. What's to keep the people charge from deciding couples with certain genetic backgrounds couldn't have children, or even saying only rich people could? And exactly how would those not premitted to get licenses deal with the fact they can't have kids? Most likely they would have them anyhow, considering you can't demand people get fixed, unless you want treat them as through they are less than human.

Or are you suggesting we go the way of China? Who premits only one child per family, so that when a family is expecting a girl (but wants a boy) the child is aborted.

I have seen some seriously damaged people have even more damaged kids. I have witnessed a crack addict mother of 4 leave her kids at home to score. I have seen a 6 year old on a school day, miles away from his home and school, wandering the streets alone. These people do not deserve kids at all. Study, pass a test, prove that you can handle kids.

Instead, no license to drive or procreate. Fuck the government issuance of permissions for things we can do either way. Nothing wrong with procreation, for god's sake it's been happening for quite some time and it's what keeps the species going. So what if we don't "need" as many as are being born, who has the right to dictate when is enough? No one but me, for my own procreative tendencies, and my firearm agrees with me.

procreation is a natural born right... what you're suggesting, Hitler, is called selective breeding, and it's sick.

Just the fact that Obie is in the white house is proof enough that some people are just to dumb to pass on their genes! We are fast becoming a third world country mainly because of the Liberals and their policy of allowing anything that can breathe and breed to cross our borders if they would make it a law that you had to be born to American parents on American soil it might help but then the American soil thing didn't help with Obie all he had to do was prove what a dishonest piece of crap he was to the Democrats and that made him a shoe in.

You have no idea how glad I am to hear that someone else shares this pov....

Few things a person can do will have more of an impact on the world around them than having children. And yet, any irresponsible, uneducated, ill-prepared moron can have one.... or 8...

Kinda-sorta. I do agree that people think more about the purchase of a car than they do about having a kid. Having children isn't a mandatory requirement, especially in this time and age when we don't need them to work our farms or to marry off into influencial families.

If China can't control its population with its rigid Menstrual Police and dictatorial regime, then I think population control is a lost cause. I do wish people could be evaluated as to being able to afford and take care of a child, however. And teen pregnancy is an embarrassment in our country in comparison with other nations. There needs to be better education and availability of birth control.

Licenses are granted by Masters in the Master/Slave dichotomy. If you decide to receive a license, you are admitting being a slave. Anyone can drive without a license,if they are willing to have the car impounded, and be fined. No one has to pay a fine. They pay it to be recognized by their Masters and not imprisoned.

There are too many stupid people breeding. They can't take care of the kids or afford the kids that they have. It's ruining the gene pool and society! Why does eveyone think that they need to have kids. We have too many people in this world already. I made a smart decision to not have kids. I can't afford them, and I don't have the time or the patience to take care of them. However, I work in social services with kids in foster care. Everyday, I see the result of breeders that can't or won't take care of their kids. Its not pretty. These kids are fucked up. I love the kids that I work with, and they are good kids. But, their lives have been tragic. I say yes to a license to breed. I wish everyone was on birth control until they could prove to the state that they would make good parents.
