The current Wisconsin Secretary of State, Doug La Follette, has written a book titled Survival Handbook: A Strategy for Saving Planet Earth in which he calls for population control, saying parents should be sterilized after having a maximum of two kids.

Doug Follette is a self-proclaimed American academic and  environmental activist.

He ran in the 2012 Democratic primary during the special election to recall Governor Scott Walker.

For all of the attention liberals, Democrats and the mainstream media have given to old editorials penned by a Supreme Court candidate decades ago, they have for some reason managed to overlook applying that same scrutiny to the incumbent Secretary of State.

Perhaps his party affiliation plays a role in that lack of scrutiny.

Besides promoting multiple weird ideas on how the world is being polluted by noise and how the automobile may be our “worst addiction” (pg 69), La Follette also devotes an entire chapter of his book to advocating for population control.

La Follette, who is elected to his office by voters across the state, claims in the beginning of the chapter on population control that the current population of the world is wantonly destroying the environment.

LaFollette argues for the increased support of, and funding for, all international organizations working to limit population growth. One strategy he suggests is for the federal government to increase financial incentives  for smaller families through changes in the tax code. He also claims the state should fund and support family planning programs.

LaFollette is third in line to be Governor under the succession of office sequence set up by the Wisconsin Constitution.
