I agree, you can't simply eliminate the problem without recognizing the circumstances and problems that lead to it. That's one of the problems our government has, lack of foresight, discrimination without option for alleviation. You have to look at the effects the laws you make will have, and you have to look at the reasons for the reasons you are making those laws and try to alleviate THOSE circumstances(otherwise you have a bunch of people out there with 'problems' that can't be alleviated except through 'extreme methods'). That's what my previous posts were attempting to point out.
I think that education is very important, and I find it horrible that the government underrates it's ability to influence a nation, and seems to not really care too much about it. I'm sure there's some asshole who has said that education is the foundation of a successful nation, insert his quote here.

I also find it hard to force a woman through 9 months of pregnancy for a baby they don't even want. Likewise, I find it deplorable that the woman got pregnant in the first place instead of controlling her urges(for all you feminists out there, i find the males actions to be just as deplorable, but the man doesn't have the responsibility of bearing children and being a responsible mother).

Maybe we should forcefully chastize anyone who has sex outside of marriage, without the intent of having a child. STICK UP THE HASS I TELL YOU.

If we want moral consistency in the government, though, I'm afraid that would be nearly impossible ;( For the same reasons lust is considered a carnal sin, so is greed, pride and whatever else motivates most of the government.
