As soon as you start hating children your culture is dead. All that's left is waiting for the clock to run out.

We need to look at the local situation to find what controls if any are needed. We are arguing about a 'one-size-fits-all' solution, where we must start thinking on a more local level.
USA is way down the list with a population rise of only 0,6% (mid 2006-mid 2007). But what can we do about those at the top of the list? Eg.
Niger 3,4%

Reducing the population of the latter, even massively, would
not solve the problem and any double standard would be viewed as politically unacceptable.

Do you think that a couple in Somalia who keeps having children in that hell of a place just because they don't care about contraception or because they want more hands to work their land actually cares what happens to those children after they are born ? Would you say that they love children just because they make lots of them ? Or perhaps they like unprotected sex, consequences be damned ?

YOU LIVE IN A DESERT!! UNDERSTAND THAT? YOU LIVE IN A FUCKING DESERT!! NOTHING GROWS HERE! NOTHING'S GONNA GROW HERE! Come here, you see this? This is sand.
