The planet is in fact overpopulated, and some sort of depopulation efforts need to be put into effect.
The simple minded folks always seem to retort with "start with yourself", or some other ridiculous comment.
The population is continuing to grow, and the planet can only sustain so many people.
Natural disasters would be the easiest action to take in an effort to depopulate certain areas, but we just can't count on those as being reliable.
Wow, this looks like the beginning of a "Posting Gang" with you and the original poster's mentality showing that you want nothing more than war,
and to call people that make comments about other people seeing the uselessness of war and the "need" for war in order to control the population
because it's "growing out of control" through the self-perpetuating cycle of idiocy of people in Washington D.C. shows your lack of understanding
for the cost of humanity to endlessly send soldiers off to war where people die because of some jerk in a suit hiding behind a podium is lieing to the
populace.
Anyone who promotes war has no knowledge of history, no knowledge of how politics works, and no knowledge of life itself. To promote a war to end
lives is stupid and innane in that there are a multitude of other things to do in order to make the populace spread out, like space colonization, or
pushing the populace out into the areas that are still wild, where people can spread out more.
