Overpopulation Is A Myth - Duggar Family Mom

Via The Huffington Post: "Michelle Duggar, star of TLC's reality show, "19 Kids and Counting", says there needs to be more children because our world needs more joy. And as for overpopulation? That's just a lie, Duggar recently told the Christian Broadcasting Network in a web interview. "The idea of overpopulation is not accurate," Duggar says, because the entire population of the world could fit inside of Jacksonville, Florida. "I agree with Mother Teresa when she said, 'to say that there are too many children is like saying there are too many flowers,'" Duggar said...".* Ana Kasparian and Cenk Uygur break it down on The Young Turks.

well you might be right.... but people dont just need food we need cars, clothing, houses,electronics,beds,hospit­als etc etc where do you think those materials like cotton,rubber,wood, cement, paper etc used for those things come from...

She clearly has not been to India.

Mrs. Duggar has got to be one of the most idiotic women of all time. My god! She makes mothers look bad.

Doesn't mean she knows shit about population mechanics.

As a side note, the duggars accept no financial help from the government and are completely debt free - that's more than a lot of us can claim.

And also, if there were, say, seven or eight other families instead of the duggars who had two or three or four kids - they would be using the se resources as the duggars - would you pick on them? The Duggars do not force their beliefs in anyone, and they blatantly say that having 19 kids is not for everyone. Meanwhile, we're gaining valuable, Contributing members of society who are not going to go around committing crimes and sucking as much welfare as they can out if tax payers pockets.

Maybe being simple minded is a good thing? At least they're happy and contented...unlike the negative vibe I always get from your show..
