No baby is "born addicted." This is a medically inaccurate & stigmatizing term. See: https://tinyurl.com/opioidsletter & https://dspace.hampshire.edu/handle/10009/939 …

What's judge doing for babies born with fetal alcohol syndrome the long term consequences are far worse but alcohol is socially acceptable
-
Perhaps these procedures should be available to alcoholics too, at no cost or minimal cost.

It's not about whether they will use again...they probably will...it's about them not creating more addicted children. Worth considering.

I didn't think eugenics was just "controversial". I thought we had all decided that eugenics was flat out wrong decades ago.

I don't see the controversy if it's voluntary.
-
Saying "do this or I'll keep you in jail" does not make something voluntary. Is it voluntary to give wallet to mugger who has a gun on you?
-
Stop and think about what you're saying. You're comparing someone who's in jail for committing a crime, to a mugging victim FFS.

I'm comparing the use of force to the use of force. Force doesn't stop being force just bc it's the government doing it
-
And forced eugenics is wrong. That simple. Doesn't matter if there's due process, there's some things even gov shouldn't do
-
They are offering it. There is no force involved. Eugenics aside, we're going to run out of resources real quick.

What are they supposed to do if they become pregnant with a potentially drug addicted baby? This is their only solution.

Good for him. Offering, not forcing. Public health decisions always always hard
