I Solemnly Swear I Am Up To No Good

License To Breed... I firmly believe, and I know this doesn't add me to the list of people who should be in government power, that there should be an IQ test that allows you to either get license to have children, or get surgery that unables you from doing such a reckless thing.

We face in sadness the otter reality that the dumbest people breed more children than those who have a good mental and monetary reality.

The world would be a much better place, but off course this could never be done in a country where the previous generations have raised a bunch of whining pussies who hold onto the politically correct, instead of what must be done .

умнее форма власти.

while i hear your frustration, agree in gut feeling, and though i do believe you to be more or less just venting, when thought through this is very cruel and tyrannical. i know i should not be taking this at face value and presenting an articulate argument against it is probably missing the whole point, but if we as a "world" truly want to stop the population problem the best thing that can be done is up the standard of living for people. statistics unequivocally show that when people are given the means to better there lives (education and career opportunities) and future security (able to make more money) they are far more likely ("likely" is key word as there are not absolutes as far as human behavior goes) to have fewer children. it is the most impoverished countries where there is the least security for a prosperous future that people breed like rabbits? why? because it is a genetic reaction to adverse conditions. all people (through their genes and dna) are programmed to perpetuate their blood lines (pass down down dna through the ages) and evolutionarily speaking, the strategy to best do this when in living in a state of perpetual poverty, where good medical care is unavailable, and infant mortality rates are high is by having lots of children. places where those detrimental environmental factors do not come into play "tend" (another key word) to have the lowest population growth, often in the negative range (japan being a prime example at -20%). culture and religion does play a role for many around the world as to how many children to have, but is becoming increasingly less influential, especially when conditions favor having few children that you have the ability to take exceptional care of, thus increasing the means to pass your dna along without having to have 10+ kids. a strange but apt analogy would be the difference between carpet bombing and using precision munitions to achieve your end, both get the job done, but the latter is preferred.

as for using forced sterilization merely as a means of improving the spread of "good genes" and the ending the spread of "bad genes" that would be called eugenics and another discussion entirely, perhaps even the discussion you intended to start in the first place. however, that is a truly controversial topic. when applied in it's best sense it has the potential to eliminate most diseases and make everyone beautiful, but in it's worse it becomes it becomes a means of determining who's (what races and genetic traits) get to have a future on the planet and which ones do not, and this in the wrong hands (as we saw in nazi germany) becomes a tool of genocide.

Oh and yet some rather say the "foreign" are stealing all their jobs... why? because people from other not so wealthy educated countries are willing to become more prepared and do jobs they lazy bugs are unwilling to do unless getting paid what a person who went through the efforts of having a master degree, working overtime, putting their personal lives behind to get something good coming to them.. some people need to stop blaming governments and start getting a clue of what they are missing.

well i agree with all that. i think you answer lies in the lack of perspective. you have perspective having come from a different place, a harder place, and you can see things changing for the worse in america. most people here are like frogs in a pot of hot water. the analogy being that when you cook frogs you don't throw them in a pot of boiling water cause their reaction is to jump right out. to cook frogs you put them in cold water and slowly turn up the heat. the change is gradual enough that they never get the impulse to jump out. the american people have so long been hypnotized that they have become akin to cattle. the government has them fenced in there pasture and the chew their cud of television and entertainment and the government milks them (through hard work and taxes) until they are all used up and then they are slaughtered and turned into dog food. you have perspective most here can not have as they have experience generations of peace and prosperity (for the general masses i mean) so they think it will always be that way and have never had to "grow" up and so act like babies and think of their government as their parent, and that is exactly what the government wants them to feel and think. independent thought and self sufficiency is the governments worse nightmare.

Greatly agree with the last sentence.

This has been a topic of conversation in my family recently: that we should take all the stupid people and quarantine them.

Copper, with all due respect, stupidity has nothing to do with access. I know plenty of stupid people who have college degrees and I'm stunned they have children because I would otherwise be convinced that they were too dumb to fuck.

We should fight ignorance every day. That's all we can do.

Is that last word bitch? It looks like bitch. And I agree, the dumb are out breeding the smart. I'm outnumbered here at work 15 to 1 at the moment >:)

Nop, it's not bitch, it's spelled "vlasti". It means "intelligent form of government"

I agree with this and your comments 150%. It doesn't look good for future generations, does it. I will help you develop the test Ravenge... and oh... it will be GOOD! ;-)
