Contraception without consent: the way Forward to Progress! You are making our dear leader Mrs. Sanger so-o-o proud.

OK. Instead, make food aid conditional upon sterilization. Give them the choice. Want to make as many babies as you want? Then feed them yourself.

[Mrs. Don-o]

Routine food aid is often a long-term bad idea because cheap/free food ruins local farmers and normal wholesale/retail food marketing. Food aid works well for short-term disaster relief, but poorly as an overall development strategy because it destroys local agricultural economies. Haiti is an example of a nation ruined by "aid": so many Haitian people have been reduced to a degrading state of permanent dependency.

Your approach, though -- coercing the hungry by making their survival contingent upon reproductive self-mutilation --- shows sheer contempt for poor people as people.

All of us have hungry people in our ancestral line, because all human societies have gone through famines, and all families --- viewed inter-generationally --- have gone through had times. People often survived by getting help. It goes all the way back to Genesis, if you are familiar with that.

If your scheme had been accepted, you would not exist.

None of us would.
