Lincoln was right in his time, but stupid people breeding & proliferating really is a 20th Century problem.
I'm sure Lincoln would have something very astute to say about that had he genuinely been a 20th Century President (not the wannabe fake & pathetic puppet who can't decide to emulate Roosevelt or Lincoln)...
Hard lesson for son.
He gets to live with that forever.
Yes, I suppose so.
I think that today's medical teams try to save everyone. In Lincoln's time NOT everyone was saved, good, bad, smart and ignorant. People "let go" more readily because they knew there was no recourse.
I just recalled, since you got me thinking about it, that there was a largish movement about reproductive rights some years ago and the outcome was that everyone has the right to procreate. That included the mentally ill, incompetent, Downs Syndrome people--everyone.
I can remember being appalled.

You were right. I stand corrected.
