Gina Rinehart Calls For Sterilization of The Poor

Conservative billionaire Gina Rinehart called for the sterilization of the poor today, arguing that the only way to alleviate poverty is to stop the “underclasses” from multiplying.

In a video uploaded to her official YouTube account, the Australian mining heiress said that income inequality is caused by differences in intelligence, and eugenics is the only answer.

“Our nation faces a grave economic crisis as the combination of a strong Australian dollar and falling commodity prices sap our ability to compete globally,” she explained. “The only logical solution to this crisis is to strengthen the quality of our most precious resource: human capital.

“I believe that any couple making less than $100,000 a year should be forcibly sterilized through a vasectomy or fallopian tubal ligation. Those earning more than $100,000 a year should be encouraged to have as many as 10 or 12 children.

“Only by eliminating waste and focusing on our brightest, most efficient workers can we hope to see off our rivals in the emerging world.”

Inherit the Earth

Rinehart is the richest person in Australia and ranks as one of the wealthiest women in the world. Most of her fortune comes from a mining company she inherited from her father and later built into a leading exporter of iron ore.

Her fortune prospered during Australia‘s long commodity export boom, but is under threat as China‘s economy slows and iron ore prices tumble. Adding to her woes is the rising cost of production.

Late last year, Rinehart made a video arguing that Australians needed to accept lower wages because people in Africa were willing to work for $2 a day. But in today’s video she seems to have realized that even that won’t be enough.

“Paying Australians less is a part of the solution, but it can’t be the whole fix. It’s no use paying someone at all if they’re too lazy, drunk, and stupid to properly operate our sophisticated mining equipment.

“So I’m willing to pay a decent wage, as long as I’m getting the son of a doctor and not the son of a failed bartender on welfare. The problem is that the underclasses seem to be outbreeding the intelligent folks, and I can’t find a decent worker anywhere.

“That’s where our government comes in. By stopping the poor from procreating, we can create a new class of intelligent, hard-working, well-paid Australians that will forge our economic future.”

Rinehart recently ranked 16th on Forbes’ list of the most powerful women in the world, ahead of Australian prime minister Julia Gillard. Her fortune is estimated at over $21 billion in U.S. dollars.

“Only by eliminating waste and focusing on our brightest, most efficient workers can we hope to see off our rivals in the emerging world.”

This whore is so stupid to think that being rich or earning much money does equal being bright or intelligent. She needs a bullet right between her eyes. Ahh I see she is just a spoiled heir. After her father's death in 1992 she inherited his company Hancock Prospecting. I see. Now it makes sense. A typical chauvinistic capitalist.

I do not think this a viable solution to the problem anyway. It all comes down to ability, self control and drive. I find it frustrating because there are plenty of poor kids who are smart or have the potential to be smart but don't bother with it due to bad upbringing, peer pressure etc. I think it has to do with people standing up and saying 'I will do what is in my best interest' as i did and not forego half your education because it's uncool or whatever.

Of course this is pretty offensive but to be honest it just makes her look a bit stupid, because she clearly hasn't thought this through clearly.

even if they would be all perfect there wouldnt be room for anyone or any couple to earn over 100k a year. Second it would lead to massive incest.

A typical Marxist.

She is clearly just stupid, and should be left to herself.

I wonder what her father would think of her statement. Anyway as someone who has not really done anything other than inherit i do not think her argument will carry much weight, unless she is going to sterilize all these people herself illegally.

True. And it is pretty flawed anyway, you can't get rid of the bottom of a society, there is always a bottom. And if this was kept up it would just amount to a massive genocide and cripple human productiveness, and waste her precious human capital.

[Fortitude]

Pretty sure this a fake news story. Possibly a parody based on her father saying they should sterilize aboriginals.

I did a thread on this already. It's a parody. She didn't say that, as good an idea as it is.
