I mostly meant in terms of population. There is a physical limit to the number of people who can be on earth. If economic growth is dependent on population growth as many seem to be suggesting, then we need to reckon with that. And we should do it sooner rather than later.
- dodobirdlord 6y agoMore people means more technological development, which is then rapidly disseminated in the modern world. World population is estimated to peak sometime this century and trend downward from there. Combine that with the fact that eventually most other countries will have comparable standards of living and the free unlimited immigrants gravy train will end, but while it's available, immigration is great policy.
