If you don’t think there are too many people, try finding a stream anywhere in the world that you can drink out of. Try finding one within a few miles from where you live. I live up in the Blue Ridge mountains and it is still difficult.
Zakaria spells it out in “the Post American World”. (Which does NOT mean we’re dying out.) Considering India and China are only 3 BILLION people, compared to our 360 million? Of course your China assembled computer will guide you to “tech support” in Mumbai, but. . .
^The whole “octomom” thing was septic. I was merely pointing out that birth = death, for women in many countries, still. Which, the U.S. is actually getting worse, not better.
This is fine, we all agree there are to many people in the world. So who is going to kill the five or six billion people you want removed from the planet? Who decides who lives and who dies? It is easy to say ‘No room’ but not so easy to make that room.

Sepsis still kills a lot of “moms” and their kids. Maybe we need more self-control, and caring for “others”, like vasectomies.

^It’s more due to cows than “people” in most of the U.S. Of course, throw in mountain top removal mining back in your neck of the woods and . . .
