I'm all for paying 13 year old girls to implant something like norplant.  
And, we should give it free to developing countries.  There are too many 
neglected children, in this country, who grow for no reason except to feed 
the criminal justice business --and it is a business. 

 And, there are too many hungry children in deveoping countries.  Soon, we 
will all be gone, and a whole bunch of hungry people will replace each of us, 
somewhere in the world.  There are too many people ......bobford
