"you are falling for the 'if there is vacant space, their must be room for more people' arguement."
No, my friend, not at all!
I'm saying that the agriculturely (sp?) productive countries produce WAY more than they/we consume, send/ship a LOT of food to other countries, and that there is a majority of the world's population which ISN'T providing for themselves, and that THEY are the problem of CURRENT AND FUTURE over-population, not the developed countries.
"it is a world problem, not a single countries."
NO!!!
It's a problem for MANY countries (China, India, etc.), but not ours, and not other developed countries. We sustain ourselves for the vast majority of our 'needs', and send excess production elsewhere. MANY countries can't even feed themselves!!
Who doesn't get that?!
"Third world" countries are dependent upon the food excess and generosity of "first world" countries.
"Over-population" is NOT a U.S. problem. The U.S., on the other hand, is an enabler of global over-population. Maybe we should stop doing that.?
