Better still, the medicine has a reached a point where the procedure is <i>reversible</i>.<br /><br />How about we offer substantial tax benefits to young men who get a vasectomy? Once they sort their lives out, get married, settle down, achieve financial and emotional security, and actually fully decide to raise a family, then they can go get the reversal procedure performed, becoming ineligible for the benefits in the process.<br /><br />Heck, for extra security against potential complications which might render a reversal impossible, we've also got fully matured technology for freezing and storing viable sperm for periods of time spanning decades.<br /><br />This really isn't a practical issue, in my mind. The biggest barriers seem to all be largely procedural. We could be doing so very much more to prevent unplanned pregnancies, at very little comparative cost, but we simply choose not to for what ultimately amount to cultural and religious religions.G.
