Fine, I only want 0 then. Argument won. I'd rather have 0 kids and fix humanity and global warming than have a kid. The fact that you'd rather nitpick my argument and call it hypocritical in the face of extinction... It's lik

Instead of trying to optimize every last variable to maximize population and minimize side effects, it seems much more reliable and simple to minimize population. So many problems would be solved with 1% of the population. Think of the traf
