We all know that humans are fertile by default. And that left uncheck, humans can reproduce like anything short of rabbits. We also know that unrestrained polulation growth is going to seriously harm this world sooner or later.

Now, I've got an idea so insidious it almost genius.

Why don't we dump into the whole country's water supply (and later the world), chemical contraceptives. Everyones knows about it because the government told us during a nationwide campaign. The effect of this will be that everyone is now infertile.

Now here's the thing. With everyone now infertile by default, everyone can now happily shag away without fear of getting pregnant. Of course there's still the minor issue of AIDS, but let's not allow this technicality to interfere with a good plan.

But if a married couple say, REALLY, REALLY want to have kids they just take another drug called a "counter-contraceptive" and BOOM they can have children again. No more unwanted or unplanned kids to tax our ailing natural resources. And fewer parents being unequipped to raise children.

Brilliant hey? :rolleyes:

Personally, I wouldn't want to consume any form of contraceptive, being male and all. Besides, there are lots of hormonal side effects which would play havoc with the male body. Dosage would also be a problem. And I don't think you can do anything like a counter contraceptive. My gf did a project for 2nd year medicine about birth control so I could have her point out some issues in finer detail, should the need arrise.

Can you say satire.
 
Or how about we just use the unwanted children as a much needed food supply? You'd be killing two birds with one stone, so to speak, and potentially creating an industry for the disenfranchised millions in our country. I'm sure there would be a market in China, given their predilection for exotic cuisine.

I will obvious distance myself from your viewpoint, the parents that "want" to have children can be as unequipped to have children as those who refuse to have children, there is not any guarantee that the parents will raise their children well...,.

How noble your ideas and plans they are deemed for failure...

I hope you realize I were joking.
 
and we carry on being a pill popping society, anti this pill for the pill i'm forced to drink in my water supply. Now your theory has some merit, but i think we should invest in a bottled water plant first, for those who may not want to drink your chemical infested water. I'll retire in the next year, just give us a heads up when you plan on executing your master plan. Then Pinky we take over the world!

Yeah, Brilliant.

You effectively poison the entire human race and render them infertile (not to mention the probability of this treatment on working on more than just humans). This stuff would have to be persistant to be of any use which means it's going to be around for a long, long time.

It just takes one catastrophe to render humanity unable to create the counter-contraceptive... at which point humanity will have successfully relegated themselves to the extinction pile of the genetic heap.

You're basing you argument on a big assumption. That one, and only one, catastrophe renders humans incapacitated.

As you can see from above...:)

My argument it still perfectly valid if multiple smaller problems still cause the end of the counter-contraceptive being produced.

Don't forget the means/intelligence tests for those that want kids so we quickly cut down on the air thieves but at the same time ensuring that we have enough deltas (or whatever they were called: long time since I read it) to do the crappy jobs.
