Overall policy did do what it was intended to do
Unexpected consequences showed up
The policy overall, good idea to decrease population. Policy violated human rights
Specifically women's rights were violated :
Probably better ways to have decreased the population without such drastic measures
Grants for people who have smaller families
Free contraception
