I'm so glad people bring up new offsprings all the time. Thanks to them, despite our supposedly declining demography as a sad ageing country, we destroy one extra percent of my country's land every 8 years, just for housing (and that's a much bigger percentage of the truly usable land). Since my mother's youth, the available surface by inhabitant has decreased from 3.5 to 2 acres, and the usable ratio of this 'available' surface has dropped too. Infrastructure can't follow, it is a rat race with public spending that can never catch up with the population increase and concentration, that create exponential problems.
I am so glad our African neighbours still fuck like rabbits, in order to produce an extra +20 million people every year, on a land (and a society political organisation) that cannot support half of them, destabilising all countries there by internal migrations; and another million or so having to move to Europe every year, destabilising the social systems there which are not designed to accommodate such influx.
I'm so glad that people keep pretending the demographic problem is a supposed decrease in population when it is actually always increasing, and the continuous increase is the problem. I'm so glad they use 2-century old rhetoric on demographics and do not notice that there has been a small change in productivity per human being since those days.
