Thought the days of eugenics were behind us? The New Orleans 
/Times-Picayune/ reported 
<http://www.nola.com/news/t-p/capital/index.ssf?/base/news-6/122223371288730.xml&coll=1>
 
on September 24 that a Republican member of the Louisiana House of 
Representatives named John LaBruzzo 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_LaBruzzo> "is studying a plan to pay 
poor women $1,000 to have their Fallopian tubes tied" in order to 
contain the state's welfare costs.
