I think Josh’s tax plan is a great idea. I’ve never advocated a government outlawing too many kids, but giving incentives? That’s another story…
As for the 1.5% ain’t bad poster, I’m not too sure of his/her intelligence because they keep shooting themselves in the foot…worldwide population growth is 1.1% not 1.5…
So we’re adding 6 new Los Angeles basins worth of people every year, not 12. Still way too much for my blood.
Humans are in no danger of going extinct, I can tell you that. Population growth could turn negative and we’d still be fine. I’d actually like that.
