Re: Use birth control pills to prevent pregnancy? You're fir
Bee, I'm curious - what's the solution, in your perspective? Can you suggest a better course of action?
I'm not asking what people "should" do - I've gotten that you think that we should all pay for ourselves, each man is an island, no cooperative effort, etc., etc.
But in the society that we HAVE, where we pay taxes and social programs exist and children born to unwilling or incapable parents will partake of social programs and your tax dollars and what-have-you ... outside of doing what we can to help people limit their family sizes to make the most of our resources, what's your solution?
If you just want to express dissatisfaction with the state of affairs, that's cool - I like to complain about human stupidity, too (in different contexts, such as walking four abreast and blocking the top of the subway stairs for one last text and being incapable of understanding the context of an "indoor voice"). But I am curious what alternatives you'd suggest.
