Associated Press Article Posted at Huffington Post: Plans to Liberalize China's One-Child Policy

"The Chinese government credits the one-child policy introduced in 1980 with preventing hundreds of millions of births and helping lift countless families out of poverty.

Couples who flout the rules face hefty fines, seizure of their property and loss of their jobs."
