One thing that has been tried here, but was quickly shot down by the welfare lobby was making Norplant (a two ? year hormonal birth control device that gets implanted subcutaneously) implants a requirement for receiving welfare checks.
You need to read the Constitution again, you missed something critical in there. ____________________________________________________________________ | | | Participation requires more than just bitching! | | | | _____ The Armadillo Group | | ,::////;::-.

Nope, I didn't. Nowhere is the Constitution does it say that citizens have a right to welfare money. The State is free to make virtually anything not expressly prohibited by the Constitution a condition for providing welfare. Including that the recipient takes positive steps to forestall the breeding of further welfare recipients. Even making castration a precondition for receiving welfare would be constitiutional.
