If these people are living at a poverty level where starvation is a stark reality, why the fuck are they having children? To watch them die?
Oh, wait, that's right, the same people who bring them "feed the children" also bring them "every sperm is sacred"...
Oh cry me a fucking river... Get the fuck over it. My ancestors were slaves too. And exploited too. And persecuted too. And I'll bet one or two of yours were too. I'm tired of hearing this shit. Just about every group on the planet has been exploited, screwed over or otherwise messed with by some other group.
An honest man is one who knows that he can’t consume more than he can produce.
These people are poor because thier way of life is FAILING THEM. It's simple social darwinisim. Evolve or get out of the gene pool. It applies at the behavioral level as well.
By 2015, despite a low expected 1% growth rate, experts estimate there will be 7 billion people on the planet. (We're actually up to 6.5 billion today, we'll probably exceed 7 billion) By 2050, there may be as many as 10 billion people living on this planet. Can the planet support this population? When will we reach the limit of our resources?
LOL, Served
