Posted on: The One-Child Policy

Considering the large number of exceptions and the fact that single childs marrying single childs can have tewo, very few people are now impacted by the one child policy. The estimate is only about 35% of the females in age of having a child are impacted. 

In Henan, had the birth rate remained the same as before the policy there would have been 30 million more births, or one every 30 seconds.  It is not only an economic issue, also an environmental issue.
