>>3. To achieve this it is legislated that no family may have more than one child. No woman may produce more than one child in her lifetime. 4. A woman known to be carrying more than one child must abort the excess children. A woman who carries to term more than one child must pay an excess child tax equivalent to 100% of her income for 10 years. This is the extreme political opposite of the extreme position outlawing abortion. It should be popularized as such. In which case, maintaining a woman's right to abortion in the first trimester would be seen for what it is -- a moderate position. Instead, popular media offers the false opposition of abortion / no abortion. It's a way of containing debate to an extreme position (no abortion) and a moderate position (abortion in first trimester) by excluding the other extreme position, mandatory abortion, from public debate.
