If overcrowding really is such a problem, I think either imposing limits or even sterilization would do. That would circumvent the moral objection, for me.

 

Interestingly I am against both on moral grounds.

I think that both compulsory sterilization and legal limits on the number of children you can have violate the rights of parents. However optional (and free, or perhaps even with incentives) sterilization and incentives for having fewer children are decent ideas for controlling the population in my opinion.

Sterilization with incentives will be argued that you are trying to sterlize the poor by liberals in most countries.

So would incentives for having fewer children honestly.  Unless the country gets as bad as some of the more really crowded ones.

It's the same reason people in the US can't sell their organs willingly. 

The funny thing about sterlizations is too they won't do them.  Most doctors won't for example tie a woman's tubes if she wants it done unless she has had a kid... even if she doesn't want one.
