For All That Ails, a Social Solutions List

* To deal with a variety of social problems, I heartily recommend the following:
* Make vasectomy reliably reversible.
* Temporarily sterilize all male children at puberty with an implant.
* Teach parenting in all schools starting with kindergarten.
* Require a birth license for both sexes and to reverse the male’s vasectomy or remove the implant.
* Require a certificate in good parenting to obtain the birth license.
The above would eliminate abortions, welfare, orphanages, day care, teen-age crime, teen-age pregnancies, children with AIDS, probably many divorces, wife abuse, overcrowded schools, single parents, and most important, child abuse.
Pro-life and pro-choice would then become synonymous. All children would be wanted, loved and cared for by a well-educated and responsible mother and father.
