Gene Roddenbery the man behind Star-Trek in the 60's saw this coming when he interwove Eugenics Wars in the History of Earth in the Future.

The Chinese are looking at pushing population control as a result of 'Global Climate Change'. So how soon before population control edicts begin to appear, and who is going to make the decesion on who gets to reproduce, what cultures survive and what culture/peoples are bred out of the world population equation. And then the 'survivors' fighting over the resources of the world.

Since the Chinese and Muslim populations are the majority in most Eurasian areas, we will see how population cotrols evolve. And we thought the Crusades were a bad time, wait and watch if this becomes ther prevailing thought. Genoicidal wars, mass extermination of minorities, sterialization, the possibilities are endless.

I skimmed through the article and I didnt really notice anything to the degree your stating. Hasnt China had a population and family laws for a while now? I am sure I heard about the "one baby police".

China does have one child law, but if 1st child is female, another is tried (illegal or underground) to get a boy. The inroads to population control will be suttle and paced to prevent major opposition till too late to reverse. Even Verne covered population controls in his writtings, as well as Orwell in the 1800's. We saw another attempt of population control in Germany 33-45, where 'Aryan's' could reproduce at will and others were controlled or eliminated/removed from areas. Even today German Law provides benifits for 'pure' yes the word is used, Germans to reproduce to keep pace with immagrant numbers.

China's had a population policy for ages. They're jsut seizing on the latest big issue to try to stifle criticism.

Mmmm, perfect babies.

Eugenics is coming, be it to breed blonde hair and blue eyes into our kids, or to use sperm from genius's in IVF.

Or, you know, to breed out diseases like breast cancer.

I guess I'm not really shocked? Work in a hospital long enough, you'll start believing in population control.

The idea of a world-wide one child policy scares the hell out of me for a variety of reasons.
