Population Control

The Earth’s population is now over 7 Billion, that’s quite a lot and it’s only going to rise exponentially as the years go by until the Earth will be over-run and thrown into poverty as we won’t be able to feed everyone. This will cause the starving people not locked in by borders anymore to start riots and steal, and can you blame them?

China has the right idea imposing a 1 child limit law, this helps to reduce the population by having 2 people subtract into 1 every generation. However this law is not very well enforced.
I propose that when the Earths countries are united under one that every woman will have the right to one child. If they do not want to have children then they can undergo a procedure to make them infertile, now the good part...

Since they didn’t use their token to have the child they can sell it to a family that might want more than the one child they already have, for people that want bigger families. They do not receive money as this does not exist anymore but they receive a portion of the family’s ration points let’s say a lump sum of saved points or a certain amount per week for a predetermined amount of time. This will help limit the population and gives an incentive to not have children while letting people who want more than one child to be able to do so.
