Children of the poor could be sold into a meat market at the age of one, he argues, thus combating overpopulation and unemployment, sparing families the expense of child-bearing while providing them with a little extra income, improving the culinary experience of the wealthy, and contributing to the overall economic well-being of the nation.

This fear comes back when Bob is drowning Ponyboy in the fountain, and Johnny acts more violently because of it.
