No, that line of thinking is called malthusianism, and it's wrong.


Malthus wasn't wrong, except in his timing.

Wolfgang is a Cornucopian, and a believer in perpetual growth, despite
the fact that nothing in the known universe lasts, or grows, forever.

Tell me how many people the world can possibly feed. Is it infinite?

If it's not infinite, how long will it be before the world population,
which is increasing exponentially, exceeds the number you come up with?


See my .sig below..Wolfgang is almost certainly a socialist.
