China's one-child rule turns into a time bomb

BEIJING (AFP) - China's one-child policy has prevented almost half a billion births but has turned into a demographic time bomb as the population ages, storing up huge economic and social problems for the country.
As the world's population hits the seven billion mark, straining the earth's resources, China can claim to have curbed its birth rate to around 1.5 children per woman since the policy was introduced in 1979.
Without the birth limits, which no other country applies as rigorously or on such a scale, the world's most populous nation would have hundreds of millions more mouths to feed than the 1.34 billion it has now.
But from modern cities to remote villages, its implementation has involved abuses from mass sterilisation to abortions as late as eight months into the pregnancy. Baby girls have also been abandoned and killed.
Couples who defy the rule can face fines amounting to several years' salary, have access to social services cut and even go to prison. Their so-called "black children" have no legal status in China.


Hmmm, let's see, who would be against this policy?  Let's think about this a minute.  Actually, I don't even need a minute.  Right Wing Christian Conservatives, Pro Immigration Lobbies who promote immigration into the west, Globalists, Capitalists, Humanists.  Ironically, China is a Communist Country (at least that's what we're told) and yet they enforce a one child policy.  So, who would be FOR such a policy?  Well, those who cared about quality of life for those countries who have a population surplus, REAL Environmentalists and I guess Sustainable Living Lobbies which are labeled as purveyors of Agenda 21.  I'd say a majority of Western Nations and those who are of the west would be against this policy.  So these RWCC (Right Wing Christian Conservatives) are against birth control, abortion and a one child policy.  Following them is like preparing to live in the movie Soylent Green.  In fact, I've heard a RWCC say that they would resort to cannibalism if animals went extinct.  He'd eat other people before considering a vegetarian diet.  Anyone who thinks RWCC are on the side of anything other than Jesus is deluding themselves.  They can justify cannibalism if they have to, just to not appear to be leaning to the left.  Pathological and sociopathic are good terms to describe this phenomena of RWCC...TOD
