I personally would license procreation and the requirements for obtaining a license would be as follows:
1. Annual income at least quadruple the poverty level.
2. Psychological exam to weed out gross abnormalities.
3. Background check by private detective to weed out criminality.
4. Successful completion of a parenthood training program.
5. Ten thousand dollars in cash.
Damn. I can afford several kids and I don't want them. Here's my "Get A Kid For Free Pass." Give it to someone who needs the aggravation.

Don't forget a minimum High School diploma or GED equivalent. Sticking with school (or at least going back to try) shows responsibility. Although my mom dropped out of HS, and later got her GED, I turned out decently.
I thought about an education requirement and decided against it. Hell, if some dude with a third grade education can earn quadruple the poverty level income, he's probably as good a sperm donor as anyone else. What I'm aiming at is the intersection of capitalism and Darwinism. Success in capitalism is measured in dollars of income. Let the privilege to procreate be determined by the same measure: dollars of income.
You'd also have to stipulate that the 10K would be set aside in a trust fund to be used only for the kid, or something. Otherwise, they could save up the 10K and blow it on a plasma or a new car after they obtain their license.
Actually I meant the ten thousand dollars to be the cost of the license. The cash is handed over to the government.

update..octuplet mom: from yahoo news
"From what I could tell back then, she was pretty happy with herself, saying she liked having kids and she wanted 12 kids in all," Garcia told the Long Beach Press-Telegram.
"She told me that all of her kids were through in vitro, and I said 'Gosh, how can you afford that and go to school at the same time?"' she added. "And she said it's because she got paid for it."
haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. thank you California!!! 7 weeks round the clock care, 47 doctors, and now 8 more mouths on the welfare teat for 18 years!

(I suspect you don't have any kids...
And... you shouldn't, especially in your current state.)
-Well there then, you are proving my point. You are bashing my ideas of deciding who should have children and at the same time doing it yourself. So is there, then, nothing wrong with it? Or are you exempt?
(This whole argument, I predict, is about to get really ugly, so I will choose self-control by not adding or trying to detract from it at this point.)
-If you are not adding or detracting from it, then what the hell do you call this post? If you wish to bite your tongue on a topic, the point is to NOT post on it.
(Some of you people are "out of your minds" kinda-nuts... if only your parents thought the same way...)
-Well I am glad you are an authority on deciding what qualifies as nuts or not. A number of your posts reek of christ-like-love all-shoe on the other foot bull shit, and it is repulsive.

We are a life form and we reproduce. It is our ONLY purpose.
Finally, something we both agree on.
Maybe then they'll realize that society is nothing but a beehive where not too many are important. If you wanna solve the problem, kill the queen. Then destroy the hive.
And let society rebuild itself? I'm not sure what you mean, but something tells me it's an important lesson to learn. Perhaps rebuilding would only result in history repeating itself and then society will have to destroy the hive once more. Are you referring to a trend of declining/uprising societies? Or am I completely lost...
