This is something I have been calling "peak people" for some time now, sure we can afford to have some more people but that involves the richest and most wasteful people taking a haircut and that ain't gonna happen. Poor people have always been "worthless" to the majority of rich and powerful and as our population grows people will become worth less and less, life will be worth less, which in many places and according to many elites it is already worth zero. Going forward, I predict there will be a growing campaign in the media to coerce the public into supporting population controls and eventually policies that will cause premature death, whether knowingly or not. For example, good diets are no longer pushed like they used to be when nations needed strong populations to fight other nations, today McDonald's and many other junk foods are pushed and aimed at our children through advertisements, Western nations have never been so obese, so addicted to legal and illegal substances and so inactive when it comes to exercise. This isn't an accident. It is 2018, no one claim truly claim that there is nothing governments can or could have done to avoid this path. It's only going to get worse from here.
