Population control

Population control

Select a moral issue:
Given that we have moral obligations to future generations, should we encourage population control by limiting family size?”

and analyze it thoroughly, using your moral theory of choice.

discuss both sides of the issue from within the same moral theory.  For example, if you are using contractarianism and you decide that the death penalty is morally impermissible,create the best opposing argument you can from behind the veil of ignorance.  You would do this by imagining what another contractarian who disagreed with you might say concerning relative vulnerabilities.  The stronger the opposing argument, the better your own argument as you show why your position is stronger.
