Some thoughts on 'population control'

 

Some thoughts on handling the so called population problem...

1. Govt to issue two credit vouchers to every person upon reaching legal marriage age. Tied to their adhar number.

2. The value of each voucher is equal to half of median (not average) cost of raising a child up to 18 years of age. It gets adjusted every year.

3. Every year up to 10% of the credit can be converted to cash depending upon the value of the voucher at that time. When the child turns 18 all of remaining value gets cashed and deposited in his account.

4. Govt schools/hospitals etc. will have no free facility. These credits will be used for payment at these facilities. 

5. Released credits amount get attached to child's adhar and can be used as payment card for child's expenses.

5. It must be legal for people to sell these vouchers to others. This will reward people to have less children (since they can sell the unused credit and make money) at the same time people who can afford to have more children, they can have if they want. These voucher will sell in market for a reduced value and will be bought by people who have decided to have more children.

6. 5% of the taxes paid by a household must go to surviving parents. This will encourage parents to raise their children to become productive citizens as a guaranteed income source.

7. If a parent does not educate his/her children severe punishment including auction off their property educate the children. Govt enables the parent for child RTE by giving the credit voucher, now its the parent's responsibility to ensure child's RTE.

Some benefits:

• Illegal aliens won't able to leech tax payers money.
• Poor people or childless couples can sell the voucher and make money to support their family.
• Government will need not fund inefficient schools/hospitals since people will go where the service is good.
