ALL countries are brutal. That's how they work.

To look just at China for the brutality of its government is to hide your head in the sand.

The 'One Child Policy' has been discontinued for years. In my opinion, the sooner the world as a whole implements a 'one child per woman' policy the sooner the world will be able to reach a population level that is sustainable long-term, and halt the overuse of sparse resources like water, fish, soil, and start to reduce CO2 levels in the atmosphere.

This article is about China, so that's the context of this conversation. The point of the article is that the policy has lingering effects, which are being noticed now through the study of data points. Are you seriously suggesting a one child per woman policy, or is this in jest?
