Sign in High School Promotes Population Control, Tells Teens Two Kids Maximum

Fr. John Hollowell, a priest and blogger from Indiana, saw a disturbing sign in the hallways of Northview High School in Brazil, IN.

At first when I walked past the sign I thought to myself – “Oh, cool, they’re starting to catch on that our population levels are at a critical phase and that we’re heading for a demographic winter because no one is having kids anymore; they’re trying to get the word out that our population growth is trending towards a crisis….”

Then I literally had a sick feeling in my stomach when I realized I had the sign completely wrong.

In 1968, the book The Population Bombwas released and predicted, among other things, mass famine and death from starvation due to overpopulation. The book initially claimed that there was no possible way for India to feed its population of 200 million. Since the book was published, India’s population has grown to over a billion, and while malnourishment levels are unacceptably high, it is mostly due to corruption and and government ineffectiveness, not overpopulation. The mass starvation due to food shortages never came to fruition–food production actually increasedfaster than ever before.

Despite the completely wrong predictions in The Population Bomb, the idea that the world is becoming grossly overpopulated has remained in the public’s mind. This has led to a shockingly low fertility rate in the western world–almost all of Europe is not reproducing at replacement-level rates.

It is not a school’s job to dictate family size to its students, but I am not at all surprised by this sort of rhetoric. This ridiculous project is grounded in junk science and overly-hysterical predictions, and should not be presented as fact to students.

I guess those teachers better start using ‘protection’.

DESTROY iSLAMISM. Then we’d have a little more elbow room.

Well said.

Yea, but “baby mommas” are ok. Right?

Great post as usual. The real difficulty is that there isn't a demographic measure for those citizens loosely termed Makers and Takers. The former are being out-bred and out-imported, no matter what race or ethnicity or national origin they are.

Within the issue of illegal immigration I'd be silent were the proportion of Makers sufficiently high to constitute a net gain for American society, instead of (1) a new welfare class filled with (2) Democrat party voters. Unfortunately it appears to be the latter. The cliche "jobs Americans won't do" was an attempt to couch this influx in terms of a gain in Makers. Like so many liberal political slogans, it is a lie.

And so what we actually face is a larger population diluted by a lower percentage of productive citizens, both by birth and importation, and a central government that has bloated in size and power through the promise of redistribution from the productive to the entitled. The question is not whether the country will be bled to death by it, but how quickly.

Obama’s Scientific Advisor was a 60’s “overpopulation” zealot, and said that the US could never, under any circumstances, support feeding 250 million people. We passed that figure a decade ago.

no. they are talking to white kids in rural Indiana

Good to see this “old fool” woke up

What makes you think he is old? It is a public school, not his school.

#28 meant to be reply to you

..."Breeding machines"...???

I don't think they've yet perfected extracorporeal gestation.

Good thing, too, since any re-casting human procreation as a "machine" project is an affront to human dignity.

How about a maximum of Zero for the wrong people and a minumum of 7 for the right people.

Now we just have to decide who the right people are.

[Romulus]

Zero population growth is a recipe for economic collapse. we’ll see how much you like that.

[MrB]

Oh, no, no, no...

limiting them in any way would be “racist”.

[MrB]

The target isn’t the “population”,
it’s the family.

That’s why they don’t care about, as someone else put it, the “innercity bastard machines”.

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

would “useful idiot” have been more pleasing to you?

[Tax-chick]

I’d rather be called a “breeding machine” than a “brood sow.” It sounds cleaner.

If more women knew what men really think of them, they’d make some different choices in life.

I have to ask because there is a man in Tennessee who have like 29 kids with several baby’s mommas.

He must be a genius in some odd way. I don't pretend to understand his special talent.

I don't want to support him either. I don't care what hobbies a man has, as long as they don't confict with mine.

The world is well into the third great revolution, the digital age. Economies which are more than Third World agricultural communities or second-rate industrial revolution countries relying largely on extraction industries will no longer rely on population to provide them markets, rather they will manufacture with robots and control the process with software.

The economy which requires ever-expanding population to provide consumers is a 20th century economy and it implies an economy of hamburger flippers. Eventually, our economy must abandon this Luddite obsession with numbers and join the new digital age. Either the United States regains its scientific leadership and manufacturing edge by moving ahead with technology or we will succumb to the Democrats' dystopian world of cultural misery, widespread ignorance, and generalized poverty partially brought about by expanding the population with consumers unable to speak English, share our culture, or compete in the new age but adept at flipping hamburgers. Even without a flood of dependent immigrants, our educational establishment is failing to produce a workforce able to compete into the foreseeable future on a worldwide basis.

The economy, no more than Social Security, can long survive when it is grounded upon the foundation of a Ponzi scheme. We need talented people not a lot of people. The numbers are an asset only in a consumer economy otherwise, in the 21st century economy, they will be a liability. They won't produce but they will vote.

The challenge will be how to distribute wealth when it is created by machines without distributing liberty as well.

[Gene Eric]

>> it is how they vote

Over 50 million aborted. 20 million imported?

Feminism has wrecked the Country.

[PapaBear3625]

I think people should have as many kids as they want PROVIDED that they can provide for such kids WITHOUT public assistance.

Then again, posting "If you can't feed 'em, don't breed 'em" would get me cited for hate crimes.
