Oh, that's gonna work out well.
Overpopulation…another thing Leftist university professors can stop scaring children with. A real worry, will robots get cheap enough to be used in nursing homes to carry our bedpans?
Meanwhile, since 1980 there have been an estimated 1.8 BILLION Abortions worldwide. Satan can’t beat God, so he’ll try to convince His creation that it is convenient to eliminate itself.
I’ve grown older since 1988.
The title is wrong - even the UN’s most extreme projections show the world population continuing to grow until at least 2050: https://esa.un.org/unpd/wpp/Graphs/Probabilistic/POP/TOT/
This is extremely interesting to me since I have recently (in the last year?) read that global population has hit a plateau and will not continue to rise. That did not make sense to me, at the time. But now seeing these explanations it is rather convincing. At least I am more inclined to agree.
So unless life spans increase very significantly we may have hit “peak people”.
This is one of those “rate of increase is decreasing” trends but it certainly is significant. How the Zero Population Growth mania turned into the “we need to import all the world’s poor people” is a bit of a mystery to me. Less than replacement reproduction does not mean the society is going to diminish to zero “if this trend continues” because it never does. It means it will be smaller. That used to be considered a Good Thing although it’s tough to run a redistributive welfare state that way. Capitalism deals with it in terms of increasing production. The former will fail, the latter will adapt.
