As if there was any doubt, science again confirms the obvious, that there are way too many people on this planet for us all the have a decent quality of life. The conservative policy of massive overbreeding is great for keeping lots of people enslaved in poverty and servitude, but terrible for health and happiness. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Optimum human population a third of present, scientists say STANFORD -- Until cultures change radically, the optimum number of people to exist on the planet at any one time lies in the vicinity of 1.5 billion to 2 billion people, about a third of the present number, three California ecologists estimated in an article published in the journal Population and Environment. Paul and Anne Ehrlich of the Center for Conservation Biology at Stanford University and Gretchen Daily of the Energy and Resources Group of the University of California-Berkeley said that figure, "if achieved reasonably soon, would also likely permit the maximum number of Homo sapiens to live a good life over the long run." http://news.stanford.edu/pr/94/940711Arc4189.html
Nonsense. There is enough people. For example we are producing enough food to feed two or three earths. So less nonsense. And ok, is necessary a change of culture, mentality and a society change. Because this system is unaffordable for whole world. I mean the capitalist system. We need to change the capitalist system for one more just and equitative and freer.
What is the conservative policy of massive overbreeding? I think we should let some folks that make bad decisions, have children that they cannot care for, and are dependent upon government for survival simply die as a deterrent. Perhaps we shouldn't reward mindless breeding. Whatever general charity can do is fine, but Darwinism takes over after that. Highly sophisticated societies tend to have less children. So, adapt or go the way of the dodo.
Religion, conservative cultures, and the GOP, maybe you've heard of them? I think that is insane, especially since it causes problems for everyone else, like welfare, crime, gangs, crowding, etc.
Obama could end overpopulation. Just beckon over the officer with the "football"...a few authorization codes and...W88s solve the problem. Depopulation is OK with me as long as it is someone else doing the dying.
This is the kind of nonsense that millions of dollars of federal grant money produces. We don't need fewer people on the planet. We need people to live more intelligently.
The US is like 124th in the world when it comes to population growth, but don't let that fact ruin this moronic thread.
People who don't understand this thread, don't understand Malthus' Law. However, I will say that the real problem is that the people who reproduce the most, are the dumbest and least educated, on average. They oughta just get fixed
Isn't he already doing that? he's trying to collapse our economy which would lead to depression which would lead to no food for anyone, then to Muslims overrunning our country and killing us all. I really don't like Obama.
