[Age of Reason]

With only present day agricultural technology, the world could support more than 70 billion people.

If you have to resort to agriculture to feed people, than the world is overpopulated.

And the world's entire present population could live in the state of Texas.

They could take up even less room if we pack them like they did at Alcatraz--funny how we equate crowding with a loss of freedom and punishment.

Human beings live on less than 1% of the earth's surface.

Then why do we have to pay for real estate if there is so much of it?

So, upon what criteria do you base your assertion that the earth is overpopulated?

Upon freedom.

Just that it seems like there are too many people in your opinion? Good. Then do us all a favor...

There, there, there . . . in a crowded world, you must learn to be tolerant of people having a ideas different from yours.

What? Are you joking? Agriculture is how we are fed. What are you, a hunter-gatherer? What are you trying to say?

They could take up even less room if we pack them like they did at Alcatraz--funny how we equate crowding with a loss of freedom and punishment.

Who equates crowding with a loss of freedom and punishment? People increasingly group into cities. They do it because they like it and it is both beneficial and efficient. Besides, many people think San Fransisco is a beautiful place to live. Too bad the commielibs have made it a haven for filthy bums.

But, hey! I heard you cannot get lost in San Fransisco--they have aides on every corner. Nyuk, nyuk!
