The eugenics movement is alive and well today.

I agree. It is interesting how "population control" is only utilized on poor areas - Africa and assorted third world areas. The elites want fewer poor around.

Maybe the "elites" want less suffering, and a better chance to improve the lives of the poor and suffering, instead of having all efforts to help them neutralized by their ever-expanding numbers. But population control is really separate issue from eugenics. Even a genetically outstanding population will be a pit of misery, if it keeps reproducing faster than it can grow its economy and education levels.

Your anger leads to haste.

Firstly, there is no need for population control among the "wealthy" because these peoples do not reproduce: both Europe and white America declines in population for over 30 years.

Secondly, even if they did not, the educated people tend to be more responsible about giving birth than the largely uneducated populations of Africa and Asia.

Thirdly, there is nothing elitist about not wanting to raise someone else's babies. When Africa can feed itself, let is have as many people as it wants. Now, you seem to have a chip on your shoulder and do not know what you mean by "elites."
