Henry,

You misunderstand - I'm certainly not saying that it's racist to aspire to reduce world population growth. But there does seem to be a focus on imposing 'solutions' on developing countries as if they are the problem. My point is that there is less of a problem now with declining population growth - in many countries, population is either stable or declining, certainly barely growing, and population is being maintained by people living longer, not by some 'explosion' of births - and by immigration, i.e. a transfer of working population from one country or region to others.

So what if a quarter of the population of some countries will be newcomers who provide the necessary labour to keep those societies going ? Is that the unspoken (and utterly idiotic) fear ?

Joe

Henry L agree, at last racism is not part of over population religion is
And can not agree with mhazes post, not at all
If we distributed food evenly all over the world, in time population growth would see us not be able to do it
Population as highlighted in Fox's post is relatively new in humanity's history
And it, left alone, would increase hugely in that amount of time if we let it
Growth in any thing can not be forever

Belly,
I wouldn't bet on that, just look at the growth of ignorance of the Lefties !

We have the ability to feed everyone right now. The Netherlands is showing the way by being a huge food exporter all grown there. Population control is also well within our grasp The contraceptive pill effectively reduced population world wide.
The real question is do we want continual growth and it is a question that should be asked. Whether our vacuous politicians would welcome us pulling them up every ten years is a different question. Have a referendum every ten years as a constitutional imperative and see what transpires.

individual,

Obviously the poor "Lefties" are clearly no match
for your level of reasoning.
