Typical sky would fall reply. Exaggerating the outcome through ignorance of what I proposed.
Not exaggerating anything. Simply pointed out that your plan, which is full of flaws, carries the additional fault of that if it was adopted 2,000 years ago, we would not be here now. Up until recently, almost nobody had the income to actually afford children, yet they had them anyway and that system worked out alright. Hence the chart:
Unfortunately, your kind of thinking is typical of too many people who call themselves conservatives today. You turn up your nose at the idea of providing free birth control to cut down on the number of unwanted pregnancies, no doubt for "moral" reasons, then enthusiastically propose a totalitarian plan which would take away the woman's right to fulfill her body's natural function until she pleases some fat, crooked
apparatchik in a grey suit.
Your proposal is evidence that the conservative movement has fallen upon evil times indeed, more and more removed from the conservatism of just a few years ago.
