There's a tremendous surplus of foster kids in the system who will never be adopted. Basically, they're shuttled from foster home to foster home until 18 and then it's, "See ya..."

Also, a lot of these kids have serious emotional problems, many of them inflicted pre-birth.

Most of the problems I have heard about are from kids who are older than infants before they get into the foster care system.

While there would be some exceptions I would think most infants could be saved...

Also such a policy would ultimately reduce the number of such infants since it would undermine the cultural norm in some communities that encourages teenage pregnancy.

imho within two generations there would be a major turnaround in the black "underclass" if this policy were "adopted". :-)
