It is a public matter when they bring a life into this world. Insofar as the taxpayer will bear a considerable burden for that child, education, bureaucracy in tracking him etc.. Society will also pay for the consequences if he should become criminally inclined or or otherwise a cointributor. Either way he will impact society. That private matter between two consenting individuals has public consequences.

It is a public matter when they bring a life into this world How about when they don't bring life into the world?

Right but I was reponding to this part "They are quite public when they either do not produce " - I don't see why it is public business if a couple doesn't reproduce.

I guess you don't have a problem with China's one child rule then- after all, if the state has an interest in how many children a couple, it should be able to ban contraception or mandate sterilization at will, correct?

BTW, you realize this is similar to the argument that liberals use to regulate every detail of our lives - that we all effect each other and the government should have great power.
