We humans function on a higher level than animals. We are rational beings. We are able to evaluate decisions based on the totality of the circumstances. We should not be popping babies just as a by product of our need to ust a nut.


There are preventative measures.

There is a method to the madness. Their method may not have been popular but so far they have created respectful, largely crime averse, productive and innovative citizens.


We don't have to copy their entire MO
But we can emulate the parts that work

Same goes to politicians who don’t achieve goals they promised. Watch things clean up fast.
The problem is there is still an estimated 5-10% of people in jail presently who are innocently convicted of these crimes. That is why a standard like this unfortunately can never work.

There are people who were executed decades ago being cleared of crimes post-mortem.

Well not to go down the rabbit hole, but at the end of the day Women are biologically programmed to want the baby in 99% of circumstances once they find out they're pregnant.

So I'm not sure what to tell you. But it does seem that educated people have less children. Does that mean they are less emotional and have more abortions? No idea.

Either way - All I know is if broke people had more abortions we'd probably wouldn't be paying these for-profit prisons so much money. (On top of the welfare and child benefits for before the child grows up to be a criminal)

Well listen, if you want to solve the issue you have to put a few innocent ones down as well. I mean heck, millions have died in a name of the invisible Jesus, why stop now.
