There is plenty of land on earth for everyone to live.
There is plenty of power for everyone. Solar
There is plenty of water for everyone. The sea/desalinization plants.
There is plenty of food. Start looking up how much food the world throws away daily, weekly, monthly and yearly.
Population. There are several countries with an aging population. In several decades, they will have population decline.
Even if the earth's population doubled to 14 Billion in a few years, we would still have plenty of land, power, water, food for everyone.
There is no shortage of resources.
This is where you're wrong.
Where is the resource coming from to keep 14 billion people happy??

While flying at 10,000 feet I noticed that, other than cities, that buildings and homes are almost always jetting out of trees and there is plenty of room. There is alot of "unused" space. I have no idea how many of us can be supported, but there is still plenty of room.
And when it is economically feasible recycling-geothermal-solar will take on the main source of energy. Solving a ton of issues. I wish we didn't throw away anything-but right now we are still finding our way.

We could simply cut off immigration and our population would shrink. We are long past the days when we had large families to provide the labor for farms. I know a father and son who work almost 30,000 acres of crops by themselves with modern equipment. Everything they grow goes to other countries, it could just as easily stay here and that's the case with much of the food produced.

I love the smell of Doom Porn in the afternoon.
Funny, I just smell napalm.
If I have a roof over my head, and a belly full once a day of whatever I have to eat? It's all good for me! So explain Happiness for me!

Maybe a roof that didn't put you in rigid
bondage to it for so long you live to
own it. Maybe a roof that you get because
that's what human beings deserve. Oh
but that wouldn't serve greed would it?
How would others get fat? We could
use a reboot maybe. But this crap can't
go on much longer.

I think with much of the world it's a game of catch up with the West.
I read an article once about farming families in India needing large numbers of children for labor just to survive. We can't tell them hey, you need to starve and stop having kids. Their reality is very much like our reality in the early 1900's.
My father born in 1913 was the younger of 11 kids on a remote ranch and in family histories I've read the first hand accounts of how hard it got after they lost all but 5 kids to the Flu pandemic. They needed their large family to thrive. My mother was youngest of 12 raised on a farm. They literally hired out their kids to work in the fields just to eat. That is the reality of much of the world still today.

I think you are closer to the truth in this regard. I would say that once all cultures accept birth control, and they will eventually, that our population will start decreasing dramatically.
I think you get the muslims to change their minds on women and so on and it could change dramatically within 2 generations. In most western as well as China and Japan, birth rates are so low that people can't even replace themselves.
Bad for real estate value and building booms....
Who knows? so much chaos in a human foot print.
The kicker with that is, the globalist are importing all of the heavy breeders into Western Society all the while supporting the Western world to support abortion with the reason not enough of the western women are breeding!!! Now I might not be the smartest apple in the bunch, but you see where I am going with this?
