152. Educated people tent to have less children, why sterilize the poor
Edited on Sun Jan-27-08 11:17 PM by AlphaCentauri
I have seen in latin-america how governments sterilize uneducated poor people without their consent and have read about it here in the reservation done to Native American woman during the 60's. I believe that education is the problem. Many believe that college education or the quality of education a person gets should be a privilege for some not for all. To say that the poor should not have kids if they can afford them is just a cover up to the real problems and failures in our society.
