According to recent reports by Fortune and Wall Street Journal, and court testimonies, the 48-year-old entrepreneur aims to father at least 20 US-born kids specifically to inherit his video game fortune. Bo wants to leverage US-based surrogacy to bypass domestic birth restrictions and secure American-born heirs.
Citing Xu’s video game company, a Wall Street Journal reported that Xu has more than 100 children born through surrogates based in the US, and has been allegedly seeking “50 high-quality sons,” as per accounts linked to Xu on Chinese microblogging website Weibo. One of the accounts also claim that according to Xu, “having more children can solve all problems.”
Maybe repealing the child limit entirely was a mistake
Yeah, this is a good case for the need for a maximum of maybe 10 children.
This is a good case for a maximum of maybe 10 millions of personal wealth.
I agree, though I'm sure we also agree that the much more important thing is the systems that would allow a person to get $100 million to begin with were that limit not in place. "Behind every fortune is a crime" and such a system would thereby only have a very indirect way of preventing crime that is otherwise possible.
how about "if you want more than 3 children we cockblock you forever"
I don't think there's an inherent problem with having a big family, and it's not worth legislating around unless absolutely demanded by current conditions (which, right or wrong, was the premise of previous X child policies), so I said 10 because my only more generalizable stance is that these "hypernatalist" assholes should not be allowed to do what they do. 10 might be high, but I think 3 is probably too low.
Of course, this must be paired with mandatory sex ed and access to contraceptives, abortion, etc. so that as few people as possible simply "end up with" a big family that they didn't want.
I mean, this guy is seemingly just doing the creepy Musk thing where he mails his spunk to morally decrepit sickos who are willing to aid in their breeder fantasies for $$$
It's as far removed from normal human sex and procreation as you can imagine
True, but we've seen cults and such that operate more along the lines of polygyny, not to mention the "quiverfull" people (though I repeat myself)
