"Be Innovative":
This is my first time writing to you folks at DEA Watch. I suppose I
am only writing now because something that was published today
impressed me as greatly as something I read in (The) Watch about four
years ago.
I don't remember the exact date back in late 1999 or early 2000 during
the election campaign when George Bush was talking a lot about ending
a woman's right to choose, but I remember clearly someone writing that
the problem wasn't abortion... the problem was adoption.
The writer of that piece said that if adoption policy in the United
States was federalized and made easier, many women who didn't want to
become a single parent would choose to carry their births full term
instead of getting abortions. (This has been proven countless times by
the fact that the over-overwhelming majority of women who decide
against having an abortion are those who have been reassured by their
doctor and delivery facility/hospital that their baby will immediately
go from their womb to the arms of a needy and loving couple.) The
writer said that because the adoption industry in the United States
was either "profit centered" or "bureaucracy centered", women who
didn't want to keep their children would choose abortion over giving
up their babies to commercial or state control.
The reason why I am bringing this up now is because I think that what
the abortion/adoption writer tried to communicate four years ago
directly applies to the national security and drug problems we are
dealing with today.
What I mean is... for too long we have maintained a fixed mentality on
how to deal with a problem. Instead of making adoptions easier we opt
to persecute abortions. And instead of looking at better ways to deal
with people who are pissed at us we opt to pursue a military response.
Maybe the 'adoption' writer had something when he/she said that we
could end abortions if we made it easier, non-profit, and
non-bureaucratic for infertile couples to more easily and less
painfully adopt. Likewise, maybe if we sat down and talked to the guys
who are pissed at us we might find a way to co-exist without having
the perpetual war and endless deaths that George Bush appears to want.
Maybe what we really need right now is less reactionary thinking and
more innovative thinking.
That's all I have to say.
