Flashback to "progressive" hero Woodrow Wilson. Before becoming President, he was Governor of New Jersey. Wilson was a big supporter of the racist eugenics movement. Johns Hopkins University press has this
important book from Paul Lombardo. Here's a quote from page 20:
New Jersey's law was passed in 1911 and was immediately signed by Governor Woodrow Wilson a eugenics enthusiast. The law shared many features of the Pennsylvania proposals and the Indiana statue already in place. It required Wilson to appoint a "Board of Examiners " consisting of a surgeon and a neurologist who would meet periodically to determine for whom "procreation was inadvisable" among the "feebleminded(including idiots ,imbeciles, and morons), epileptics, rapists, certain criminals and other defectives" in New Jersey institutions. The examiners could sanction any operation it found "most effective".
Just a reminder, as the "costs" of ObamaCare grow: eugenics could may a comeback. No word yet on this from the Carnegie or Rockefeller foundations who happen to be experts on the subject of funding eugenics here in America.
