2. Why do the people in #1 get to choose the less desirable (target) population? That already reeks of classism, racism, ethnocentrism, xenophobia, conservatism, religious idealism, sexism, and heterosexism.

If people decide for themselves, how is it your business?

3. Paying "less desirable" people a relatively miniscule amount does not make paid sterilization substantively different than compulsory sterilization and Nazi eugenics.

In the proposed system, anyone could elect to take the money. That's a little different than what the Nazis did, asshole. How you could even compare that to the concentration camps is imbecilic at best.

Doubt it. Having worked extensively with said demographic, I'm nearly positive that most of them would take $1,000 or some amount for a free medical procedure which would result in the savings of billions of dollars and the elimination of generational poverty.
