From the early to mid-20th century, tens of thousands of nonwhite women were sterilized by the government.

It all happened too quickly. No one thought a vaccination could be developed this soon.
There was simply no time to develop an effective program of financial incentives. Once the incentives are fielded, compliance will become much easier.

#2 People of color mistrust the federal government because of past abuses. People of color also vote Democrat so the federal government can take care of them.

Maybe lean into that mistrust a bit more consistently and things will get better.

#4 /\ So recent government actions are helping by making white people mistrust the government more.

In my case Tom, I'm not at all certain that is possible.

#5 This 'distrust the government' story seems to be one that is always floated by white leftists, and they always bring up the same things. Usually as an explanation of why it is rayciss to expect someone to provide identification when it comes to voting.

Real distrust would be accompanied by being self-sufficient, and I don't see that in a lot of 'black communities'

#6 How many "white women" have been sterilized by the government (or at least with government financial support)?

#7 How many "white women" have been sterilized by the government

Reportedly, many of the poor ones deemed of subnormal intelligence or having a variety of mental health issues... or those who simply were too assertive, and so came to the attention of the authorities. Voluntary birth control was not the only tool in the arsenal of the eugenicists such as Margaret Sanger.
