50 Years of the Pill

Fifty years ago last month, the birth control pill revolutionized women's health. The term "women's health" is, of course, a euphemism for sterilization and abortion (often coerced), with the ultimate goal of population control and reduction.

Here are three related quotes- food for thought that I just can't stomach.

Obama's top science advisor, John P. Holdren:
"A program of sterilizing women after their second or third child, despite the relatively greater difficulty of the operation than vasectomy, might be easier to implement than trying to sterilize men.... The development of a long-term sterilizing capsule that could be implanted under the skin and removed when pregnancy is desired opens additional possibilities for coercive fertility control. The capsule could be implanted at puberty and might be removable, with official permission, for a limited number of births."

David Browner, first Executive Director of the Sierra Club:
"Childbearing [should be] a punishable crime against society, unless the parents hold a government license ... All potential parents [should be] required to use contraceptive chemicals, the government issuing antidotes to citizens chosen for childbearing."

Seeing as how Planned Parenthood is the great champion of "women's health", I'll close this post with this little gem from founder Margaret Sanger:
"The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."
