First off, I am fully aware that ghetto life is destroying people. The fundamental lack of respect for life has tentacles that extend into numerous situations. Crime, violence, theft, murder, drug abuse: all of it stems from a blatant disregard for life. But if we endorse programs that embrace eugenics, how is that going to promote a culture of life that breeds responsibility & good citizenship??

Yes, I agree welfare programs that pay for women to breed scores of uncared for, illegitimate children are a huge part of the problem. However, this article was discussing a government-sanctioned program that forced sterilization on those that the state deemed undesireable. If you think that’s ok, you are NOT a conservative & you have more in commmon with Obama than you think.

Your post to me, in which you claim I don’t know what I am talking about is both rude & insulting. I know more than you think. I live in a city, on the edge of a ghetto & I work in a large inner-city children’s hospital. My mother is a retired disability caseworker who can go on & on ad nauseam about how broke the system is. Please, spare me your condescention.

Don’t try to put words in my mouth then condemn me for what you made up yourself! I emphasized VOLUNTARY sterilization for those irresponsible parents who desired to continue bleeding the welfare system, otherwise their dole would be reduced or cut off. I have neither stated nor implied that I support eugenics, which I certainly do NOT. Moreover, if you can’t understand how the welfare system has virtually destoyed an entire segment of our society, then you are a part of the problem!
