Humans are the same. Overpopulation is a fine thing to have some concern about, but it as a true cause of our extinction is a myth.
It wont be our extinction, but it will be our genocide. I stated earlier in a different thread i believe, that since man has already conquered basically every disease, the only means we have left for nature based population control is War

I think our country could support a lot more people, but I seriously worry about the Idiocracy factor. I wouldn't trust most people to cook a grilled cheese, let alone raise a child.

yea, I was always bummed Obama didn't try to revitalize our education system instead of our healthcare system. To me a healthy population isn't necessarily a smart population, but a smart population would know that its everyone's right to great healthcare...

Luckily for me though, Bernie Sanders knows this cus hes smrt.

A strong education system doesn't necessarily mean all people to be successful within it. We need to cull the retards. My childbirth tax is one way to begin to do this.

yes, except heart disease (~600k deaths/yr in US alone), cancer (~550k/yr in US), lower respiratory (~150k), cerebrovascular (~130k), alzheimer's (~80k), diabetes (~75k), influenza & pneumonia (~55k), nephrotic syndrone (47k)

1.6 million people dead every year (bout half a percent of our pop). the numbers were increasing last i checked so i would suggest nature is doing a decent job catching up to our lifestyles

some suggest population will disasterously plummet in some regions of the world when fertility lowers below the golden 2 children-per-family line, but since we're (probably) not scientists here, i guess we shouldnt be making such claims without evidence/citation/logic

it is fun tho

The population isn't shrinking - population increase is shrinking.

10,000 years after all of you have died and since long been forgotten and other people argue about stupid shit... in the end the only thing that matters is: Do you want to spend the rest of your life on the phone fighting with creditors and banks on hold with machines that are designed to take you through an endless loop... or do you want to work less than 8hrs a day and get payed a living wage and not have to scrimp and save to have a doctor look at that weird mole on your shoulder?

People have their priorities a little fucking fucked up.. like each individual here seems to think REALLY BROAD issues that dont affect them, are the most important.

/shrug

I Just want a chill life while I'm here and tanking the economy so .1% can make huge profits, isnt goog for that.

PS if you want anything more than what I want you dont deserve to live, stay the fuck out of everyone elses's life and stop trying to fight for others to take more than their fair share.
