Louisiana Republican wants to pay poor women to have their tubes tied. And wants to encourage college-educated, rich folks to have more kids.

Yeah, because the rich are so much better at raising children. Just ask the Menendez brothers.

Ooh, eugenics rear their ugly head again.

More evidence that "regression to the mean" is a double entendre.

You know, it's been a VERY long day for me. I misread the headline the first time as "End Poverty By Eating Poor People."

Well, why not eat poor people? Or, better yet, turn them into an alternative fuel source... save the Republic and the environment!

I sent an email to Representative LaBruzzo, by the way, telling him what a horrible idea this is. I mean, if there are no more poor people, who's going to mow my lawn and shoe my horses? I'm looking forward to his reply.

Poor people are soylent green!

Just shoot everyone on welfare - there will be more money for everyone else and more goods mean less cost due to overstock.
Better come up with better robots. Who is really the backbone of the economy.
Imagine what would happen if anyone not making at least $50k a year were to dissapear. Who would do your laundry, mix your milkshake, take your vital signs or replace your muffler.

1000 bucks?? Get real. What are the lifetime savings to the system of not producing another child into poverty. If you want poor women to give up child birth, give them a real financial incentive. $1000 does nothing to rise them out of poverty.

Well if you think they should shoot every one on welfare great they can start with me. I'd rather work but since I can't I'd just as soon make my exit from this world sooner rather than later. I can't commit suicide because with my luck I'd just f**k it up anyway and end up being a bigger burden to my family and society.

Tanya - hugs, hugs, hugs, my dear! And I think Skwirl was just being snarky...

An altruistic and magnanimous idea with a slight hole in it.



If the poor women are sterilized from where would the usa government get their men and women soldiers to fight their wars, as in Iraq and Afghanistan?

The cannon fodder could be harvested only from among the poor and not among affluent and educated.

We got to find a solution to support the idea of the young Senator.

The implication that the 'Poor' are spending the Money of the 'Rich' is Obscene. It is clearly the other way around. He has conveniently forgotten that Despite the best attempts of GWB the US's greatest WMD, That There is a Constitution and a Bill of Rights to prevent such blanket solutions which at best can be said are a humiliation. clearly just another suggestion that attempts to increase the states power to oppress.but

People are waking up.

I didn't read anything about forcing these women to have their tubes tied. They would be paid. Of course, liberals never let facts get in their way!

Talk about missing the point, HookEmHorns. A short tutorial in Eugenics 101, for your reading pleasure, my friend.

And would that Eugenics text explain how liberals support the murder of 50% of all conceived black children every single year? Of course its called abortion, but the statistics would lighten the heart of any Klansman.

As we say in the 'hood, Colorado, that's just ig'nant.

People are waking up.

Like the morning filled with a hangover

I know.Let's take all that CEO money and give it to tanyamm so she can hire welfare moms to beat the crap out of dipsticks who come up with ideas like this.

Dulios, he likes to see poor people have children they can't afford so he can mock them and blame financial crises on them. He loves their lives, you can hear the valuing of poor and minorities in his pattern of threads.

If it's true, it is scary. To hear THIS from people's representative, politician, human after all... If THIS is not fascism, than what a fascism is? Well said, dulios, why not incinerate them into biodiesel? Instead of crematoriums, which do produce smoke only. Black smoke, and brown, and red. That smoke is already impossible to distinguish from rivers of blood. And those rivers are starting from little smell from little jacks. Like THIS. Anyway a hangover's better that crematoriums. Isn't it, skwirlinator?
