The Pivot of Civilization


Gelesen von LibriVox Volunteers

(5 Sterne; 1 Bewertung)

Margaret Sanger's most important and well known work, Sanger argues through her background in medicine the relation between disease and suffering caused by unwanted pregnancies and urges for women's rights and medical rights over personal control of contraceptive remedies. Additionally, the work is controversial with its eugenic overtones and discussion of overpopulation, particularly how the two relate in controlling populations deemed "unfit". (7 hr 4 min)

Brilliant


(5 Sterne)

We need to save the planet from overpopulation. Margaret Sanger came up with the brilliant idea of just killing babies before they leave the womb. Brilliant. Babies can't feel anything, so it is ok to kill them. Another brilliant idea is to allow women to work. Now rich business owners can get twice the work out of the family unit. Why force a women to slave away at home, when she instead can work at the convenience store for 12 hours a day making minimum wage. We all owe a debt of gratitude to Marget Sanger. We must destroy the family unit in order to maximize shareholder profit.
