Food & population
A couple of points to add to your comment.
More than cheap labour, I believe that large populations are encouraged because they mean bigger markets and the creation of more wealth, most of which accrues to the very forces which control public opinion.
The failure of democracy to deal with overpopulation will soon plunge us back into the cyclical famines which marked mans first period on the planet.
It seems that we have the intelligence to recognise these issues before they become problems, but not to deal with them.On Why Paul Roberts' End of Food deserves to be digested posted 1 year, 3 months ago 14 Responses
