Step back and consider the root of all the problems the world and all the societies in the world face right now.
Imagine, just for a moment, there were fewer people involved.
There are less people trying to get into college in your chosen trade.
There are less people seeking jobs in your chosen field.
Less people in front of you in the emergency room.
Less people in the gas station, the grocery store or the department store.
Your kids get more attention from their teachers because there are fewer students per class.
You get home sooner because there is no real traffic.
Things are cheaper and easier to get.
You don't need Walmart home delivery because you neighbors will give you what you need.
THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE BEING BORN THAN DYING.
Does that mean anything to you?
Can you wrap yer mind around that?
If there is anything that NEEDS attention, its that.
THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE BEING BORN THAN DYING.
Everything else is a distraction.
THERE ARE MORE PEOPLE BEING BORN THAN DYING.
There, three times I screamed it at you...Does it register?
No, and it won't because it is nonsense.
The problem is different. There is plenty of space, food, time, money and so on, on this planet. The problem is that it is divided wrong. 10% of people hold most of the money and part of these people are the ones truly in power, construing a society that is not providing abundance for everyone.
The problem is not too many people, but the people in power insisting on keeping the power.
You speak of 'the neighbours would give it to you' which implies caring and love. This is what the world needs and what is difficult to get to when you are suffering financially. And that caring should be at government level to begin with. But even governments are controlled by greedy people who want money and power.
So people suffer.
Not enough money for healthcare. Not enough money for schools. And so on. Not because there are too many people, but because there isn't enough money made available to have them run properly.
Big Pharma -and thus the ones in power- milking sick people as it makes them billions. Yet not giving enough to healthcare to make it run properly, which helps them as people remain ill. It's a perpetual thing.
THAT is the problem, not the amount of people on the planet.
If there's not enough jobs in a field it's because of bad economy, which again is controlled by the ones in power.
If people in general become more wealthy, taxes go up to keep us in poor state.
There is plenty of money and space and food for everyone, even without GM -which is created by the ones in power.
The problem is not that, it's the true ones in power that keep us struggling and poor.
It's the ones in true power who influence the EU and make our government ruin all the laws and systems we had to keep our country reasonably well off and running well.
So you may want to shift your focus, especially since the ones in power are mostly in America.
Did it register yet? It's NOT too many people. It's the ones who truly are in power.
