In the U.S., birth parents typically have a LOT more to say about where the children land

Give it 5-10 years. I am dead serious.

Because of the power of the homosexual lobby, I won't rule it out. Certainly there is already a problem in the foster care system when rights are already terminated. I can personally attest to a case in Washington state where a foster family taking care of an infant with mild sickle cell anemia begged an adopting family to come forward as the child was at risk of being placed with two pervert men. We called the agency, as we were out of state but paper-ready. We heard nothing back until we called again and found it was a done deal. So there is truth in what you say. The big difference here is that the rights were already terminated.

The present model has the birth mother (and in some cases, both birth parents) very much in control for newborns and in most cases when the child is placed in foster care after birth, often placing the best interests of the child behind the preferences of the birth mother. In Illinois, the agencies were rather proud of the fact that they were actively discouraging adoption in the foster care system in order to "reunite families".
