An Analysis Of Mr. Swifts Proposal

Mr. Swifts proposal is vial. It does have it's moments where it makes sense but for the most part, it's ridiculous. I understand it's meant to be satirical but it might be taking things too far. Cannibalism isn't exact the thing you joke about. He's proposing children be eaten to keep people from dying of starvation. But cannibalism is illegal and wrong. You're voluntarily killing and eating humans because you're hungry. There are other ways to solve world hunger.

This proposal is disgusting. It's more than morally wrong. If this actually went through, they would be raising children just for slaughter. Not to mention the child only lives one year before they can be eaten. That's not nearly long enough for the baby to live. They don't even have a life ahead of them. Their parents should love them but all they can think about is eating them when they get the chance. It would be irresponsible for the adults to have children if they cannot afford them or take care of them properly.
What kind of person would you have to be to consider eating your own flesh and blood? Also, why would any one want to go through the pain of child birth for a meal a year and nine months later. There are also many complications with child bearing. What does it mean if there is a miscarriage. You're also putting your body through all of this pain and suffering for nine months to eat the baby a year later. Logically, it doesn't make sense as to why anyone would want to do this or support this
