What about mandatory abortion for people already on wellfare? They can't afford the kids they already have, what right do they have to place a further burden on society?
I'd be willing to allow exceptions if they could prove they object to it for religious reasons, but it would have to be documented prior. Since at least 60% of people are prochoice, this should take a huge dent out of wellfare.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
— Pat Buchanan – A Republic, Not an Empire
