@no1marauder saidThis could get old. OK, here is a website, replete with a picture of one of the most beautiful couples I have ever seen, on the front page, to highlight that you are wrong.
Your graph says the average number of children per family is about the same as it was in 1979.
US population has increased by 120 million or about 55% since then. https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/USA/united-states/population
Only about 1% of Americans are Muslim. https://www.prri.org/research/2020-census-of-american-religion/

@suzianne saidDon't worry. The Rockefellers and Bill Gates are on it. Population will start to decline in the near future. Anyone stupid enough to take the infertility vaccine will be unable to breed. That will leave people like me to repopulate the earth.
8 billion and counting.
We need more people why?
Oh, yeah, your loony-tune "white replacement theory". You don't want more people, you just want more white people.

John D. Rockefeller 3rd founded the population council in 1952.

@metal-brain saidThat one Einstein comes with an incapacitated, retarded person and 1000 average people. Is it really worth it?
Do you realize that the more people there are the more freakishly talented people we will have? Imagine having ten Einstein like people rather than 1. Suzi wants to prevent them from being born.
@athousandyoung saidAre you claiming the world would be better off with a population of 9 million instead of 9 billion? What if Steve Jobs was never born? You might still be thinking of a smart phone as science fiction. What if Elon Musk was never born?

What if Nikola Tesla was never born? Can you imagine how backwards our world would be? Instead of thinking about how bad things would be if we had more people think of how bad things would be if we had a lot less people.

@metal-brain saidA world where I still rely on a flip phone and spend my time with my nose in a book instead of on my cell phone does not bother me in the slightest.

But it would be nice if all these homeless people weren't there. Less traffic. Prisons not bursting with too many prisoners. Communicable disease spread easily managed. Sounds good to me.
How many people are you willing to tolerate competing for your land for a cybernetic chip that lets you access smart phone functions without having to have a phone?

@earl-of-trumps saidIf it's not about race we can easily solve our population numbers with immigration. Right?
.
Here she goes again! "...you just want more white people"
Is that all you think about is RACE??? jeeezus, you ****

If you stopped condoning funding foreign wars and used the money here you could end homelessness easily with money to spare.

From the movie Master and Commander:
"What a fascinating and modern age we live in."
@metal-brain saidIf we taxed the billionaires like we used to we could end homelessness too but so what?
"But it would be nice if all these homeless people weren't there"

The USA did just fine avoiding homelessness during WW2 and the Cold War so your point is irrelevant.
@athousandyoung saidNo, the country is "full" when it comes to immigration. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/09/upshot/trump-america-full-or-emptying.html

@metal-brain saidAnd do you want the problems that goes with that large a population?
Do you realize that the more people there are the more freakishly talented people we will have? Imagine having ten Einstein like people rather than 1. Suzi wants to prevent them from being born.
Look at China, they have over 4 times the population of America. What good does 4 Einsteins do them
versus the tremendous problems they have with pollution, agriculture, energy?
@athousandyoung saidAs their economies improve they will be. It is inevitable.
Do you [MB] really think India and China with their enormous populations are driving technological advance in the world?
Are you claiming they don't offer much technological advance in the world? Who do you think came up with the idea of putting graphene oxide in vaccines? Chinese scientists.
