If you haven't heard of it, it's a really interesting old western-style open-world rpg game. It has an interesting story, and some really epic lighting affects.
According to Tom, it has some technical control problems, but it makes some great background noise for homework.
Speaking of homework, I am on page 50 as I write this of the 60 page journal due on Tuesday. Here is an excerpt from what I wrote today:
Of course, reducing the health care for young infants and prenatal care is not our only option. There is also the option of restricting the births all throughout the world. My option is that every couple should be allowed to have one child. If they want another child, they can have it, but they need to adopt in order for this to be allowed. This will cause the population to decline slowly (because, for every two people there will only be one child), or maybe even quickly, and once it gets to a stable population, then and only then can people begin to give birth to two children.
Now, I understand that there have been questions about this plan, ones that I have asked myself. For instance, what if the couple has two kids, and then they get divorced, would the new couples that form be able to have two more kids? The answer to this is no. Each of the two people had a kid for each of them, therefore if they got remarried, they would have to have only one kid, assuming that their new partners have not already had their kids. Another question on a similar thread is if they only had one child, and then got divorced, what then? That is a good question, and I think at the time of the divorce when the judge decides who the primary caretaker is to be, that should also be the person that has already used their population spot. Now, another concern that was brought up was that mistakes happen, and sometimes there will be more than two children born to a couple, what then? Well, my idea is that the child will be put up for adoption, and a couple who is willing to take the child in instead of having their own. There can also be a process where if you meet someone who really does not want to have kids can give up their right to have kids, and then give their rights to a couple who wants to have more kids.
The biggest issue with this though? There is no way that the entire world can just be convinced that this is a good idea. Especially in free countries, this lack of choice would taste sour in their mouths, because they believe that there should be a choice in how many children a couple should have, even if it means that the population will have a dangerous increase.
