As Paul Ehrlich is still in the news, this is worthwhile reading.

Ehrlich lost and has yet to live it down or admit it.

I for one think the USA has too many people, to say nothing of the 7 Billion in the world. I am not going to suggest that we need to knock off a 150 million, or several Billion, that would be insane. On the other hand, the thought of living in crowded cities or with the realization that the secluded areas today will be crowded in 30 years, makes me sad for my grandchildren.

Can anyone imagine living in India, China or in Mexico City? I cannot even stomach the idea of LA or NYC. Give me land, lots of land under starry skies above, DON’T FENCE ME IN. If there were a wilderness to civilize, I would want to go there.

In short, IMO there are too many people. We need to quit feeding those that will not feed themselves. We need to quit feeding those that will not fight their government and force a change to a free market and guaranteed rights, along the pattern of the US in 1776 to 1784. THEY are the ones that are over-represented on this planet. Then again WE need to force our government back into the bottle, put a cork in it and make it good for a 100 years or so.

Ehrlich is a discredited moron whose only saving grace is he outlasted Simon.

His whole “overpopulation” nonsense resulted only in 60 million American children being ripped from their Mother’s wombs and shredded like ground beef in vacuum hoses and the influx of tens of millions of foreign aliens into our country to take the place of those children.

NONE of what he said came true and even now as the idiots who believed him wail about “climate change” the Earth simply laughs and rains on him.

The man is a laughingstock guilty of undermining a whole civilization with his utter BS.

Remember Paul Ehrlich is an expert in the population dynamics of butterflies.

See the connections to humans?

Ehrlich is living proof that expertise in one field does not automatically grant expertise in another!

Does the 2nd sentence really need a sarcasm tag?
