The world population just topped 7 Billion. There were only 3.136 Billion in 1962. We have more than DOUBLED our population in 50 years. This video is absolute crap and lies!

With high youth unemployment they could use the work!

Population growth is not sustainable and what goes up MUST come down. Trying to keep it going up and up will only make the downside worse. Economies get better due to gains in efficiency and increased production PER CAPITA, not population increase. If you increase population but not increase production per capita you've only increased GDP, not GDP per person. You want 10,000 people making 10,000 GDP/$1 per person or 1,000 people making 10,000 GDP,/$1,000 per person?

@kcard82 "We're all still here and eating" Tell that to the billions of starving people...

@gdubya5047 and your point is?

@pnoysuede Who could disagree when you argue so persuasively? What I found most convincing was your use of all caps, disdain for the tired old rules of English punctuation, and, of course, the exclamation point. I might not have been tempted to reconsider my position if you hadn't supported your view so well with factual citations. Tell us, please, how often do they allow you access to the Internet at the institution where you are locked up? The world needs more of your erudition.

@SorokChyetirye You got it backwards. It means that something is RIGHT with the ``secular` West`s thinking. Yeah, the Middle East, that`s a model I want to emulate, suuuuuurrrreeeee.

@gdubya5047 Just a friendly suggestion; don't post while high.

@o0LuisRuiz0o Huh?

@Shanbo26 There is no "human civilization," there never was, and there never will be... unless, of course, someone finally manages to "immanetize the eschaton." As the model of erudition and historical scholarship that you most surely represent, tell us, please, how efforts to do that worked out in the past. People like you crack me up... ROTFLMOL! I sincerely believe I have had dogs that were smarter than you. But don't feel too bad, they were really exceptionally smart dogs.
The stable job is a thing of the past, the social net is eroding, and the environment is going to hell. So of course, people should have more children.
If you guys are so worried that people aren't having enough kids, why don't you work on building a world people can feel good about bringing children into?

It's worth pointing out that when ultra-conservatives point out a problem with birth rates, what they are really concerned about is that America won't have a white majority by 2050.
