The suffering of children (that I see here and speak of) isn't only about poverty and uneducated parents, shit-heads come from all walks of life, but that's another matter.

Contraception, abortion where needed, yes. Voluntary euthanasia if done with due care, yes also.

Thing is, if you think trimming back on some of the population for the sake of protecting resources is 'legitamite' and may become an inevitable necessity, then why shouldn't we start now?

We could even start with the least able members of society, and we all know where that would lead from.

Green activists rightly point out we do what we can now for the benfit of future generations, so shouldn't it follow we ought to have some sort
of 'trimming program' going on as we speak?

I'm not prepared to give up my life for the greater good in that respect (are you?), and I dread the sort of society that may just decide that didn't matter.

Perhaps we have to just all cak it with some of our own basic sense of empathy intact, coz without that, what's the blimmin point in living anyway?
