Remember Paul Ehrlich?

I've heard of him but the way Europe and the USA are being overrun with third-world poverty stricken people, I think he was partly right. When he wrote his book, California was a state with a very healthy economy, and look at it now. Mexico is becoming very crime-ridden but back when he wrote the book, Mexico was a pretty safe country to be in.

There seems to be a problem with third world conditions growing and middle class societies becoming more rare.
