Then we would have no tires, no aluminum cans, airplanes, automobiles, many of the machine tools used in manufacturing...need I go on? O.K., I will...there would also be very little farming done. Really.

Let’s see....a ten year old child doesn’t “make his own way” nor does an elderly person unable to work any longer.
Useless eaters, right?
Maybe if you take time to think about it a bit.

Imagine if we were using food to run our cars, the left would go crazy
because of all the starving people in the world.

The earth can feed a lot more people.
What s necessary s for third world countries to use more modern farming techniques.
Using wooden plow behind an ox is not really efficient.

Of course there would probably need to be more genetic manipulation. We heard reports this summer of 140 degree temps in the middle of more densely populated corn fields. That, in turn, caused lesser yields.

“Useless eaters, right?”
RIGHT, and i’m 74.
The day I can’t totally provide for myself I shouldn’t be taking up space on this planet!

You never have ‘totally provided for yourself’. You don’t make your own clothes or grow your own food or mine the metals you use nor fashion them into useful articles.
If you say that you purchase those things with money then you depend upon others to provide and sell them to you, something they may not always be willing to do.
Cheers!

Surprising that something as simple as a metal plow instead of a wooden one can increase productivity. Consider the many inventions during the 19th. century in farm machinery, combines, corn pickers, threshing machines, planters, better seed varieties,....machines to harvest tree crops, and dig potatoes. Astounding.
