It was bizarre thing to say in context. A slip?
See my #14. May help explain things.
I don't think so. They are misreading it. His point was that population was going to rise and at best that growth could be reduced by 10-15%. He sounded like it was unavoidable.
It didn't sound like he was advocating vaccines for a nefarious purpose, because you could get a lot more than a 10-15% reduction in growth if that was your aim.
I'm sure if we watched the entire speech that his conclusion would be that the easiest part of the equation to change is the carbon footprint of the energy produced.
No, it is all about context.
The context in which the speech is given, as in who the speech is given to.
Just think of it as when Obama was speaking to the SCIU and admitted that his ultimate goal was a single payer health plan.
When you know you are with a sympathetic audience you do not worry about revealing that you hold an opinion that would be abhorrent to the general populace.
