I like the idea. You have to pay to have friggen 15 children families.

If you read the article, the first two are free. This tax is meant to target people that want double digit children. Way to over populate the world. Make those extra children expensive. Farmers creating a certain output of crop should be exempt though.


The last article I read on the subject titled "You wouldn't want to live here" showed that the Earth and Mother Nature can clean up after the wasteful habits of about 2 Billion people. Last I checked, we are headed to 7 billion, and should be at 12 Billion by 2050 unless something is done. The end result is a world stripped of resources, massive starvation, and basically, we almost all die.

This is the real problem in the world today. It is not global warming. The human created portion of Global warming is simply a symptom of over population.

So if you don't like the idea, what is the alternative?

Now the math portion - if each man and woman stabilized at 1.5 children per couple limit, the world would stabilize at guess what? 2 Billion people. So this guys idea of 2 per couple is closely inline with that math. Want more? You have to pay for it.
