People. Pull out. Always.
Every. Single. Time.
Well that’s unescessary
Way too many people.
We need a new plague.
We just had one!
To put in perspective, the population in 1980 was about 4.5bln. So we could erase almost half the global population and still have a workforce like 1980. 8 BILLION is way more than ever needed to exist (at the same time).
I hope the birth rate declines. Too many people fucking up everything.
Too many people fucking Ftfy
Guns is the solution! They trim the upper middle class. You know, keep some scraps for the rest of the middle class. Is that how it works? Because I recall as a poor kid that there was no need to lock the door...what someone wants to steal your shoes?
Leading economies all have low birth rates. I believe the US is still below our replacement rate without immigration. Where are populations growing fast? This article does not say. My guess is low cost of living areas like third world counties?
In "3rd world" African countries, kids are still often used for labor so it's beneficial for families to have more children. I believe India has taken over China's place as the most populated area. There are also countries like Aghanistan, with rulers who have banned birthcontrol - although given the exodus when the U.S. bailed, I don't know where they stand growth-wise rn
