"If those in "power" wanted to relieve the pressure on this planet, we would be colonizing..."
Colonizing would do nothing to relieve the pressure on this planet. The average daily birthrate on planet Earth is about 357,000 persons PER DAY.
Even if we could move people to another planet at, say Star Trek ship speeds, we would need hundreds of ships, a place to put them and a way to supply them until they could become self-sustaining...it just ain't going to happen now or in the future.

Actually I think it would be a great idea if Muslims could have their own planet. Then they could jihad all day without bothering us.

“Colonizing would do nothing to relieve the pressure on this planet. The average daily birthrate on planet Earth is about 357,000 persons PER DAY.”
What is the number when the death rate per day is subtracted from the daily birth rate?
Just wonderin’.
