The birth control debate is ultimately a eugenic one (no matter they tell you). It's underlying goal is captured in the question "can we get more low-IQ/low-conscientiousness people (especially those of color) to use the pill so we don't have to deal with their troublesome and costly spawn?" But, the availability of birth control is what breathed life into the sexual revolution and is the foundation of our sexually liberated society. What effect on the fertility of people of different social classes would OTC oral contraceptive have? It's hard to say; one would imagine that it would lead to fewer births among the poor, but I think that fear of the effect of birth control on the upper classes (people we want to keep in society) is the source of apprehension over it. |
