In the author's society there are many different issues. The streets are filled with female beggars that have many kids. These kids need people's help to make it to adulthood which is pointless because they will become thieves or leave the country. As a result of this, there are many abortions and most of these kids were made by non-married couples. He says his solution is to sell beggar children and plump teenagers as food for money. This is a sarcastic solution to solve his society's problem. The real problems with this society though, is the way these people are treated and how they got there. This society is plagued by abusive men, pride, vanity, idleness, gaming of women, and fighting. He slips in a paragraph towards the end that states his true solution to solve the problem of the poor. He said that prudence, temperance, honesty, national pride, and mercy are what's needed. If people gave the poor a chance to succeed and if poor parents didn't have children they couldn't support, the problem would go away which would be just as effective as if they were all eaten.
There are a lot of problems with the debate on illegal immigration that Mexicans are treated unfairly. People act as though Mexicans coming into America from the South are not allowed into the country. This is completely false. If they go through the proper steps that everyone else does they can get citizenship legally. If a Canadian just tried to stroll into the country and tried to settle down they would be sent back to their country just like a Mexican. You can argue that it's too hard to become a citizen but if everyone was allowed in without going through the proper steps that would only be cheating the citizens who came here legally.
