Humans have one fatal flaw called "me, me, me!". Nobody seems to think
beyond their own comfort zone until forced to, and that day is getting
nearer with every new born human.
Yep... that be the problem, alright.. and to top it off, the relative few
that can and do think about the big picture are called loonies by the
rest..
10-4 on that one. I've gotten into it with a lot of people on the
Internet and there are still the religious loonies who think 'God' wants
them to have 10 or more children. At this point my daughter is even
aware of the approaching 'event' or 'events' and does not want to bring
a child into this nuthouse of a world. I don't want any of my blood line
having to live through "Hell on Earth", and it is so obviously coming I
can't believe the number of people with the heads up their asses.
If your blood line doesn't live through the coming Hell on Earth,
then your blood line won't live at all.
After the debacle caused by greed, irrationality, dysgenics, and a
deeply flawed economic system, there will still be a need for human
types with high intelligence and the ability to create high culture
and science, so that evolution can continue once again in an upward
direction.
Within each race and civilization, one can roughly divide the
population into _problem-makers_ and _problem-solvers_.
The overpopulation problem is primarily caused by the vast
oversupply and terrifying fecundity of problem-makers.
But there is a real _shortage_ of problem-solvers.
Problem-solvers tend to be intelligent and responsible.
Unfortunately, problem-solvers often carry the "responsibility" part
too far -- to the point where it becomes self-defeating.
They see overpopulation. They see a clouded future. They see what
tremendous time and resources it takes to give a child the best
possible life.
So they limit their numbers. While the problem-makers continue to
increase through profligate reproduction.
With each generation, human numbers get larger -- but, far more
importantly, the percentage of problem-solvers gets smaller and smaller.
Upon this elite group all human progress -- and probably even human
survival -- depends. And they are committing suicide.
We may be heading for a near-extinction event, such as the event(s)
that brought the European and Asian races into being. (We know that
such an event or events took place, since genetic variation among
races which left Africa in prehistoric times is _far less_ than
among those who stayed -- therefore extreme circumstances made for a
dramatic culling of the population, resulting in relatively rapid
evolution and the formation of new races.)
If drastic steps are taken now to increase the problem-solver
percentage of our population, it's possible that a cataclysmic
collapse and near-extinction-type culling can be avoided.
If we don't do that, America will continue to go down the path of
Third Worldization -- and become little more than a gigantic
nuclear-armed Zimbabwe, and a powerful catalyst for destruction.
Either way, the problem-maker contribution to the gene pool will,
ultimately, be drastically reduced. Nature cannot be fooled.
With all good wishes,
Kevin Alfred Strom.
