Civilization requires intelligence and surplus.It also requires compassion and humanity. We take care of those who cannot care for themselves, we protect the helpless innocent and those unable to protect themselves. That is the 'civil' part of civilization. Sanger (and those who support the same views) promote the Law of the Jungle, not the Great Body of Laws of Western Civilization. That Corpus Juris that the Founding Fathers used to craft that amazing system of limits on government that are supposed to prevent do-gooders from forcing their views of utopia down our throats with the scalpel, the knife and the poison gas apparatus.
It saddens me greatly to know that even now, after all the evil done by the Law of the Jungle utopians that there are those who call themselves conservative and pretend to ally themselves with us still exist and spout. Very, very sad.
Excellent point!
