    we need to reassert the truth.
    In the old fable of the Emperor’s New Clothes, people denied
    the emperor’s nakedness because they wanted to be seen as smart.
    Today people deny overpopulation because they want to be seen as
    moral. It is a form of virtue signaling: are you for justice and
    equity and families and being nice to refugees, or are you one
    of “The People Who Hate People”? Few look at the data to see
    whether their position actually favours those goals, or whether,
    indeed, they are having the opposite effect, obstructing progress
    toward a fairer, more peaceful and sustainable world. How did it
    come about that so many people became so passionately misinformed?

    I don't know what the solution is for the rest of the world, but the US
    could have zero population growth if the government would control the
    borders, and limit the number of people that enter.

    Unfortunately this country is infected with a disease called
    liberalism. The bleeding heart liberals want to go to third world
    countries and bring people here for a better life, The Catholic
    Charities is a good example. They don't care that they are damaging the
    lives of the citizens of this country.

    Then we have our idiot president that just opened the Southern border to
    anyone that wants to walk in.

    This country is now suffering from power outages and droughts that were
    unheard of thirty or forty years ago.

    This country doesn't have the natural resources to handle an ever
    increasing flood of illegal immigrants. The lifeboat is full.

    ------------------------
    There's nothing "Normal" about adding one billion every 12 years,
    like we've been doing since 1960! Nowhere else in Nature does a
    population increase indefinitely without a crash! Nature's plan is
    that every species has enemies that keep its numbers in check. Our plan
    is to suppress communicable diseases, and we're slowly discovering that
    this has significant costs. We should stop making flu, MMR, & Covid shots,
    to shorten the average life span by a few years, because we didn't
    listen to the scientists who called for Zero Population Growth 50 years ago! When you go too far out on a limb, you need to back up!
