@Samutsu7 i guess the 23% that didnt leave are the ones who actually give a shit about the next generation.

[crzykd1305]

@ertyqwer actually thanks to evolution cross breeding of cultures and ethnicity often leaves offspring with stronger immune system or a wider variety of positive traits. People don't realize but ever slowly generations are filtering out useless or unhealthy traits.

Immigration promotes the likely hood of new genes mixing into the family and stronger traits being passed down.

Not to say that its bad, I'm just making the point.

@ccolonescu

70 years (because for x% growth rate, the doubling time is 70/x years, and 70/1=70)

@cragmac1000 Is that a joke? lmao.

The reality is if women truly had reproductive rights (the right to safe abortions) then the population growth would be much lower, and indeed it is in developed countries with those rights. The real guilty party is misogynistic men would with-hold such rights, not to mention the misguided religious masses but that's a whole other ball of wax.

Also what are you really suggesting? That men should have the right to force women to have abortions? fuck you! lmao

[cragmac1000]

...And thanks to women selfishly bearing children due to having all the reproductive rights we have too many fucking people on this planet and not enough to support all the people that currently live here, thanks women for being such short sighted cunts.

[cragmac1000]

He is right about scientific agriculture increasing population growth, the more food available, regardless of its nutritional value will increase population size because we have more food, but not good food.

[cragmac1000]

6:32 He's actually wrong about that. The increase of speed alone as a factor does not increase accidents, stupid fucking drivers increase the likelihood of accidents regardless of speed.

[jonniebakstix]

This guy he should take that the problem seriously and stick a shotgun in his mouth

@mattelder1971 this was filmed in mid to late 90s

@MrMattZhu "simple shit" ?? most of the ppl i have tried to explain the beauty of the force of gravity that helps satelites to "circle around the earth" without almost no fuel needed, never understood what exactly i meaned when i told them that the satelited do not actually fly, but are in constant free fall towards the earth surface...and i am no scientist...i am just a bulgarian inmigrant in Spain who is good with mathematics...the problem is the ppl we are talking about VOTE.

[mattelder1971]

The professor's very first statement about the population growth of the US is wrong. We are actually just below the replacement rate of 2.1 (total fertility rate is now at 2.09). Even the population growth of the world is slowing. The total fertility rate in 1965 was 5.0, but it is now about half of that, and approaching the mere replacement rate.

@ertyqwer

talking about arithmetic: When Earth is full, how long does it take to fill another planet like Earth, if the population grows at 1% per year?
