[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another great irony of this issue is that it is predominantly male politicians arguing the ethics and morality of this issue and initiating proposals to address this "problem" of women having babies while on welfare.
Where are the women in this great debate?  
Where are the female legislators and elected officials on the matter?[/quote]

How many female legislators do you think are fine with the number of teens that get pregnant?  I doubt it's many.[/quote]

Being against teen pregnancy dosen't mean you're an advocate of forced sterilization.[/quote]

I think most here were just suggesting making it freely available - you've somehow twisted that into this vision of stormtroopers kicking down doors and forcibly sterilizing people.

Meanwhile, the only other alternatives that keep coming up here:  a.) denying it's a problem and/or b.) deflecting attention away from it certainly aren't solutions to the problem.  If there are women or female legislators who have a solution, nobody is keeping them from putting their solution forward.[/quote]
