I don't think anyone "chose" to have males. That's pretty impossible unless they fertilize the egg in a lab with a sperm that would make a boy.

Lizzy - they choose to have males in a rather harsh way. Males are the best money earners in that country, so if a woman has a baby, normally if its a girl they will kill it or abandon it so that they dont use up their quota (each family only allowed one child). Harsh but its human nature and they are forced to it.

I believe in "soft anarchy" - its a european concept ... with some principles of anachy like wealth redistribution, but the nasty bits taken out (like we do need police, etc.).

That's not choosing to have males, that's choosing to keep them.

It's pretty much the same difference. They also do it, because they want someone to carry on their name and because ther want someone to take care of them in their old age.

I've got an irrational population control idea: Everyone kill yourself. As soon as you read this, kill yourself. Just imagine the tribute that would go to cr0! He'd go down as one of the first Internet cult leaders with a mass suicide. Ummm...I'm not reading this thread after I post this...

I'm confused. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought Anarchy was lack of government. How does wealth redistribution fit in here? Thought that was a communist idea..

My opinion: The less government control, the better. Keep taxes low and people will spend their money and keep the economy flowing. Supply and demand, etc. I think a strict crimal code is a good idea though. And, I would like to see a society where social services such as welfare aren't necessary. I think they are to some extent, which is too bad because governments seem to screw things like that up (as in wasting money). In the past religious groups used to take care of the poor, but that time has passed.

I think "wealth redistribution" in anarchy may mean beating up the rich people and taking their money, so everyone has lots.
