I wish that were true. At one time it was ‘in check’. Humans are hardy species, even fool-hardy. Say, for example, that 15% of the 1939 US population fell into that category (a reasonable number).
With decades of social liberal policies, based on lower-tier population propagation rates (US Nat’l rate is .9...we’ll use 2x that for this example, equivalent to the Phillipines), that 19 million would become +112 Million unto itself in 2014, ironically supporting the Bama ratio of voters.
and GROWING...

Abraham Lincoln quotes:

1. You can modify human behavior to some extent but you can't change human nature.
2. Most folks are as happy as they make up their mind to be.

=================================

There WILL be more fools, but that's because there are SO many more people. There sure won't be any less.
People won't get more/less stupid, nice, whatever.
Maybe Lincoln was wrong. My money is on HIM and HIS experience.

You know, we are agreeing. It's semantics.

Lincoln was right in his time, but stupid people breeding & proliferating really is a 20th Century problem.

I'm sure Lincoln would have something very astute to say about that had he genuinely been a 20th Century President (not the wannabe fake & pathetic puppet who can't decide to emulate Roosevelt or Lincoln)...
