$200 and long-term birth control for addicts.
[quote name="Colonel K"]Holy <a href="http://www.cnn.com/US/9910/23/no.crack.babies/">fuck</a>. [quote]A California woman's campaign to offer drug-addicted women $200 if they get on long-term birth control <b>has resulted in angry confrontations with critics who call the idea racist and anti-poor</b>. Barbara Harris, who has adopted four children born to a drug- addicted mother, funds the program with private donations. She says something must be done to stop the cycle of addiction and pregnancy that has resulted in 800,000 babies being born drug-addicted in the United States. "They're getting pregnant only because they're irresponsible," says Harris. She says 87 women have taken her up on her offer. Most have chosen sterilization, she says. [/quote][/quote]
