Zimbabwe is just a snapshot of Africa. Africa in all the years prior to
the arrivals of Europeans was in a primitive state toward which it is
now retreating. They did not even invent the wheel.
They do not seem capable of building a country up to European standards
from scratch. Unfortunately the countries and cities that European
colonialists build are gradually decaying.

I know the above will offend some people but show me where I am wrong.

Shadow Minister mhaze agree, in fact welcome that truth in to the thread
But results of those truths and needless wars is famine, in country's that would struggle to not be having one
Water, again look at how we get it to grow food, even here
We do make good income as a country from our food producers milk beef mutton not the only things
Wool while not food requires water
WHY has the UN been unable to stop wars? in the mentioned country's, what is the use of the UN?
See most agree the world, at least in parts is already over populated
Transferring that over population to the western world is not the answer
Birth control? it would need to be forced on most

Dear Hasbeen,

I agree with you that "The world could feed a much larger population if needed" - but that's not the issue. We are feeding all those numbers already and would technically be able to feed even more, but what for? what is the purpose of life and what value does it have if we are all regimented and live alike like sardines?

"man doth not live by bread only" [Deuteronomy 8:3]

One thing for sure it makes no sense to murder our unborn especially with an aging population and then have to rely on immigration to fill jobs. Pretty sick and sad.

Thank you, Foxy.

From what I have read I get the impression that the issue is voluntary access to contraception by women. I get concerned when I see stereotyping that suggests high fertility is intrinsic to specific populations, but I will look up your link.

Cheers
