We don't need population control in the U.S. Our population is only growing becuase of imigration, which is a good thing.
Eventually, with increases in urbanization, other countries won't have population problems either. And when their 'baby boomers' reach adulthood each and every one will experience a culteral revolution, perhaps even a political one. That's the way it works.
As for this law, don't forget that the courts have consistantly came to the side of the publishers and developers on grounds of free speach. Unjust laws do get passed in the U.S., sometimes. We have a system of checks and balances that corrects this, given time.
I would like to ask, alarikf, why you switched from Libertarian to 'liberal' (whatever that means, you have indicated that you favor the Democrats)?
Most people I know who were Libertarians in their youth no longer call themselves such. They may swithc to one of the main parties, may go further into the extreme and favor anarchism, or may come up with their own names for their beliefs, like Anarchial Capitalism, or somesuch.
