Bob, a multibillionaire, pays anybody he thinks shouldn't reproduce (based on mental or physical illnesses) a single lump sum to get sterilized. Should this be legal or should the government stop this?

So funny how many don’t see that this is just the ability to make an offer. The other person still has the free will and the right to say no.

Surprising amount of support for eugenics. Replace the name with Bill Gates in a new poll and then see what the results are. He's already trying to circumcise the entire continent of Africa; I'm sure he wouldn't have an issue with sterilizing the continent either.

That is by definition voluntary on both sides

Question: does the lump sum need to be used specifically for the sterilization, like would there be a contract holding you to it, or is it just a rich guy giving away money?

If he/she consents then yes

On a sterilization kick lately?

As long as it is voluntary.

A blanket description like "mental illness" is a monkey wrench. What kind of mental illness? Because that could compromise someone's ability to enter into a contract, as it were.
