The real choice...
In the long term the real choice will be the same for all of us:
Stop too many children from being born or starve them to death afterward.
The Chinese (thanks to Mao) left it a generation too late. If the choice of being able to have a child now has to be restricted it is because of the poor choice made a generation ago.
As we are going now we will face the same choices in a generation or two.
When the pressures build the philosophical descendants of todays fundies and pro-choicers may find themselves on the same side and advocating forced sterilization and forced abortion. Starvation of your own children may sharpen the issues for both sides.
