 * The worst population control program has been in China. JL
 * Official policy of permitting only one child per family. JL
 * Forced abortion, forced sterilization and forced insertion of IUDs. JL
 * The incidence of such operations is stunning — 53 million from 1979 to 1984, according to the Ministry of Public HealthJL
 * a five-year abortion count approximately equal to the population of France." JL
 * a loss of half of their state land allotment, a fine of $200 — equal to about a year's income — and a late fee of $10 for every day they failed to report. JL
 * "No permit, no marriage; no permit, no pregnancy; no permit, no baby." they had a box where informers could drop reports about their neighbors who were pregnant without authorization JL
 * An //incentive// is a reward for cooperating, a "carrot." JL
 * In some nations, poor women are paid cash or given gifts if they get sterilized; such payments (or bribes) are incentives Jl
 * In the debate over population policy, some funders argue for an approach based on voluntarism, and insist that they will not support a program that has any coercion, quotas or disincentives, but will tolerate incentives JL
