The best way to control population is women's rights.  Women who live in countries where they can have meaningful careers and opportunity tend not to have 5 or 6 children like many women in conservative countries.


While I'm not against woman's rights. 

I'd say that has less to do with woman's rights, and more to do with the fact that you don't need children to survive in modern countries. 

I agree that economics plays a huge role, which goes hand in hand with women's role in society.  Perhaps women's role in society, both socially and economically, is a better way to put it.

We should be allowed 2 children. The risk of having and idiot douchebag single child is too high.

China's one child policy will also allow them to have thousands of men without the ability to find a wife (in country) in a few years. Awesome, let's do this world wide! /sarcasm.



Now if some savvy marketing politician can sell this policy to the mainstream public. They could say it is based on economic rationalism and good for Capitalism. Keep more money in your pocket or pay the fine if you want a second child.

A policy that is beneficial to the individuals and benefit Capitalism people will vote for it. By embracing one child policy more people will be better off. 

One child policy has been an incredible success in China. Slows down population growth and China's economy is going from strength to strength. China was once a third world country. Now it has the second largest economy in the world. One Chil Policy has succeeded and is partially responsible for the economic prosperity of China.

Not if you make it illegal to get abortion on the grounds that you don't like the child's gender.

Poliginy would also be a solution to that.

Just remember....I talking about government welfare. Not ending charity wholesale.

My argument is that government one-size-fits-all, top-down welfare is causing the problem, not helping the poor. Helping the poor needs to be done on an individual, private, case-by-case basis. If and when that happens, customized care can help those that are needy and are truly deserving of assistance, rather than the metric simply being set at a certain level of income multiplied by the number of children you have.

If you put it in the hands of individuals and charities that can........*gasp* discriminate against abusers of the system, you will have less people popping kids out for welfare, which will correlate to lower birth rates, and other benefits to the system.

A better solution would be to reinvent welfare, and concetrate on helping/training people to get jobs rather than giving them handouts.

China is not brainwashed by tabloid media and religious groups.
Religion is poison. Judeo-Christianity-Islam have caused a lot more problems in the world than Atheism and Buddhism.

Chinese are traditionally non-religious or spiritual people who do not want to cause trouble and fight ridiculous religious political wars that cost a lot of money and often end in a Stalemate.
It is the paranoid Westerners who spread the propaganda of China taking over the world through military conflict and still stuck in the Cold War mindset of fearing the Eastern invasion.

China will take over the world through peaceful economic expansion without the use of military force. China now has the second largest economy in the world and it continues to out perform all the other economies in the world.

World population in 1960 was around 2 billion. World populations have grown by around 1 billion more every 10 years since 1960.

2010 the world population stands at 7 billion. 5 billion increase over the last 50 years. World population will be around 11 to 12 billion in 2050. 

Developing nations populations are increasing exponentially due to the lack of birth control, lack of government regulations, lack of education and religion based education does not accept birth control, contraception and abortions.. 

Bigger world human population corresponds to more environmental destruction. Rain forests are being cut down and facing extinction. Many plants and animals are becoming extinct due to human. 

Maybe it is time that a policy like China's radical One Child Policy is adopted and implemented by governments around the world. No discrimination based on differences that separate humans because they feel superior to someone else. One Child Policy should be implemented as a universal law. 

Focus on raising one child instead of two or more children. China's One Child Policy has been an overwhelming success. China has become the second largest economy behind the US.  China has seen a huge overall growth in economic prosperity of its nation. China has turned from an agriculture society into a technologically industrialised nation. 

That's because abortion is horrible and should be illegal :P

The one problem weve seen with the codification of your OP is the aging population result. ^_^ Just pointing out a nasty issue, but hey I'm all for the abolition of religion but what would that solve in the end? Unless condoms and the like were free...

Please tell me this is a joke. China is in shambles, it's workforce is dwindling and will be far too small to support the economy in the next thrity years. tens of thousands of babies are killed each year because of the 1 child rule. The worlds population is not too large, nor will it be for thousands if not hundreds of thousands of years. There are plenty of renuable resources on the earth, and to be this extreme is just plain silly, and lastly, GTF out of my life! Not you, or anybody else has a right to infringe upon my basic human rights, no matter how wrong you think they are. Just because China does it, does not make it right.
