If you think that, you're incorrect. That sort of procedure, in more primitive forms, existed long before our nation--back to ancient times. Depending on the culture some societies regarded the recently born as fair game as well for their parents to cull if desired. As a rule governments tended to get involved in promoting population increases mostly for nationalistic reasons--wanting manpower for the military machine, or at least an increased tax and labor base.
