Yes, but more of a prophylaxis against the inevitable human degeneration. I really wonder what percentage of humans are "good" and "productive". The current society encourages deceptive practices to get ahead, because nothing stops from the egocentric people from breaking the social norms and conceptual construct of these sets of expectations to achieve personal success. So more and more of these people will be in charge, accelerating the degeneration. Therefore, preventing the perpetuation of these kinds of people would be beneficial in my opinion--it is of course a generalized approach to the situation because again I do not know the proportion of people who behave this way. Not to mention the group mentality when it comes to things of this sort.
The government and laws have lost the sight of their true purpose, which is to protect the people. My expectation is that the government will do what is right for itself, which in turn in its thought process, will benefit the people under its protection. If the birthrate goes down to a certain point, I think you will see more laws against abortion.
