I don't want to get off topic, but last time I checked, the abortion debate was about how much control a woman should have over her baby (or fetus, if you prefer).
Also, is it okay for me to have 10 kids and make them all worship me (From a legal standpoint, I'm sure that God would have something to say about it)? Is it okay to have kids so I can get someone to buy cigarettes in a seedy neighbourhood because I'm too damn lazy to get out of bed? Is it okay to have kids because I just want tax breaks? I'm not accusing you of having these motives, don't get me wrong, but there are limits. Surely, the rights of the offspring to have a healthy life are greater than those of a Parents Right to Turn Their Children Into Stars To Fulfill Their Lost Dreams (TM)?
Anyway, I think that the stupid should be prevented from breeding. Call me a eugenicist, but I think that its better to have some eugenics than a bunch of mental midgets who can't figure out how to operate basic objects having kids, the kids starving to death/getting electrocuted/getting molested/etc..
