The sad thing is that some are allowed to both vote and reproduce.
Just prior to WW II our nation went through a time when our government attempted to control reproduction (eugenics). Below is a paragraph I found when I "Binged/Googled" Brush Mountain, Virginia, eugenics
My cousin found similar information in the history of Oklahoma.
This might be the reason we delayed our support of England and France in WW II.
Early Eugenics
The book begins with a chilling description of a government sweep into southwestern Virginia's Brush Mountain, where sheriff's deputies ran down “imbeciles” for state eugenicists.
The authorities had prescribed forced sterilization, an idea that had humble beginnings in the theories of late 19th-century British statistician Francis Galton.
A pioneering meteorologist who also discovered that fingerprints were unique in each individual, Galton believed intelligence was inherited. He wrote about the subject and studied inherited intelligence, then coined a word using the Greek words for “well” and “born": eugenics.
The idea soon found fertile ground in the minds of American sympathizers, who thought controlling the birth of “imbeciles” and the “feebleminded” would “better society.” Anyone could be a target for the eugenicists. Epileptics, also considered “feebleminded,” were a particular eugenicist concern.
