Just about everyone knows that Democrats have a real passion for abortion. In fact, few things make them prouder to be an American than to catch sight of an abortion clinic. Of course, most never come and outright say they support abortion. No. They are pro-choice. That is until Uncle Joe let the cat out of the bag.
Your policy has been one which I fully understand — I’m not second-guessing — of one child per family. The result being that you’re in a position where one wage earner will be taking care of four retired people. Not sustainable.
Thank you for those encouraging words, Uncle Joe. We feel secure knowing you are representing all of us abroad.
Joe understands? Joe refuses to second guess? What exactly does he understand about forced abortions? The trauma that is inflicted upon innocent mothers as she is forced to kill off her own flesh and blood against her will? I would like to know how any of this is justified and would encourage Joe to come forward and further explain his sympathies with the CCP of China’s barbaric and murderous policies.
Speaking of something “not sustainable” below are the effects of China’s one-child policy. I wrote this at Big Peace last week. The subject is how China’s one-child policy is affecting military readiness. But more to the point here is how it has affected society.
China instituted the one-child policy in 1979 under the Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping in order to control China’s exploding population rate. Then China was largely rural with a large peasantry class. That still remains the case outside of China’s major commercial cities. The policy was passed as a temporary measure but is still a fixture for roughly 40% of married couples, 30 years later. To mention that it has affected society goes without saying. Parents are forced to be selective about births. As a result, infant girls are aborted, abandoned, or go unregistered. Infant boys are overwhelmingly chosen over girls and have caused an unnatural demographic shift in the male female ratio. (I believe the natural ratio is 104:100?) This has government planning authorities worried.
The end result is a startling gender imbalance, measured by the 2010 census to be 118 boys born for every 100 girls. Back in 1982 the ratio was 108:100, rising to 111:100 in 1990 and 116:100 in 2000. (Investor Spot)
