1. Why can’t we sterilize the CEO’s and politician’s?

They are costing us considerably more money than poor women and their families.

2. What's even scarier is that many people agree with it.
I'm on a board that discusses fertility and parenting, and many of the women think it's "great" and a "choice" for these women. Of course, many are anti-choice when it comes to other reproductive rights.

5. He said about 80% of his feedback has been positive
Keep in mind, he represents the same district that elected David Duke.

I just can't believe there are still people like this.
