Who will feed them? What would be social implications of such a move?&lt;p&gt;Our freedoms are not always applicable in other parts of the world.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sethbannon</author><text>From the article &amp;quot;All couples will now be allowed to have two children&amp;quot;.&lt;p&gt;So it seems China isn&amp;#x27;t so much ending its one-child policy, as augmenting it by one to a two-child policy.
