Here's a New York Times story on a crackdown in rural China on violations of its one-child policy. In a lot of ways, it provides an interesting comparison to the current debate in the U.S. regarding illegal immigration. Do you feel the same about the importance of enforcement in both cases? Is a similar message sent by each state about the value of lives in its midst, and what are the implications of sending that message? How do the interests of the respective states in enforcement compare? Is the right to have a family a substantially weightier reason to break the law than is the duty to support one's family (an important motivation for much migration)? And does thinking about these issues lead one to amend one's position on one or both of them? What do you think?
