Are Babies Made in Factories?
[VALIDITY] Capitalism, high wealth gap, no vat-produced infants
[DESC] A recent inspection of a local hospital revealed a scheme, where surrogate mothers struggling to make ends meet were paid to deliver babies, which were then sold to ‘customers’. There are no laws regarding surrogacy in @@NAME@@, and a debate has been called to discuss what next.
[OPTION 1] “Please, @@LEADER@@, this is the only way some of us get to see money!” shouts @@RANDOMFEMALENAME@@, a pregnant surrogate mother, who’s ravenously eating a yogurt. “It’s hard to gain proper employment in this country, but with commercial surrogacy, we finally get a chance to contribute to society! We give infertile couples their own biological baby, and then we get paid afterwards! Everyone benefits! ”
[RESULT] you can put a price tag on life
[OPTION 2] “Nonsense!” interrupts @@RANDOMFEMALENAME_1@@ through a megaphone, a more conservative women’s rights activist, who’s been listening from an open window. “Those women carry children, which if I may add, are not even their own, and then sold afterwards? And what then, will they spew out babies like no tomorrow just for a bunch of coin? They will be forced to give children, whether they like it or not! Women are not factories, this cannot be allowed!”
[RESULT] the womb factory has recently closed down
[OPTION 3] “Neither of you are right.” butts in a local charity organizer @@RANDOMNAME@@, as @@HE@@ takes the megaphone from @@RANDOMFEMALENAME_1@@’s hands “ @@RANDOMFEMALEFIRSTNAME_1@@ is ultimately right, surrogate mothers will eventually become exploited, so how about a compromise? No one has ever become poor from giving. Surrogacy should be made for free. Infertile couples still get to have their children, and for free of charge! Perhaps the close ones of the couples can do it for them, all in the name of charity!”
[RESULT] surrogate mothers get paid with gratitude instead of money
[OPTION 4] “Are you all out of your mind?.” interjects your tired secretary, who’s been quietly listening from the back of the room. “I mean, using women’s bodies as factories? I don’t see why we should bother with any of this. All this pressure on women to give babies is tiring. I think we should just sterilize everyone, and make babies in actual factories using, what do they call it? Vats? Those infertile couples can have the child of their dreams and surrogate mothers, if you can even call them that at that point, won’t have to bother. It will make everyone’s lives easier.”
[RESULT] infertile couples are blamed for sterilization of the population
