Labor Camps and Forced Sterilization
One of our "liberal" commentors suggested these two solutions for ways to reduce government debt. These two "solutions" preceded the Final Solution in Nazi Germany. They were employed by Mao in China. The USSR had the Gulag Archipelago. Pol Pot had camps.
The first instinct of a totalitarian progressive is to strip away basic rights. Progressives seem to hate free speech, so they use everything from mocking (Bill Maher) to criminal courts (Mark Steyn in Canada) to silence opinions they don't approve of.
Who on Earth would give government the power to decide who gets sterilized and who does not? A totalitarian progressive. Who on Earth would give government the right to set up forced labor camps? A totalitarian progressive. They have done it before, and they may do it again.
When you think about it, Obama's $12 trillion national debt has pretty much turned America into one big forced labor camp, with the illusion of freedom. Now if he could just do something about the 10% unemployment in the People's Republic.

Norplant isn't sterilization and rights, including the right to procreate, aren't absolute. We already strip away some of people's "basic rights," (some felons can't legally possess guns, for example) so this would just be one more.
Try not to get the vapors over it.
