I second this.


And also this:
Quote:
It would have a bad effect in the western world because African farmers can grow crops far more cheaply than Western farmers. A drop in food prices is to be expected. Although it will have a downturn in western economy's since most farmers will turn bankrupt and we will be dependent on African farms thus a dramatic shift of power will occur. That is why it hasn't happened as of yet and probably never will.



Never going to happen, tell me how you could grow enough food in an arid area to have over-production in order to sell food cheaper then in the western world.

And Africa is a continent, not a country, to whoever said that, your name doesn't deserve to be mentioned for such geographical blasphemy.

Seriously, how many fucking times will people make that obvious retort. Just don't have kids ok? That's the fucking solution. Simple as shit.


at the point where you are affirming that we let millions of others die of starvation b/c the world is too populated, you should be the first to step up to the plate

You should definitely not have kids.

Yeah, let the people in africa have kids, let the western world die out and turn the whole planet into a place that sucks.

I'm sure from his comment the entire western world will stop having kids :rolleyes: Over population is a big issue, cutting back on having kids is not a bad idea.

We're already cutting back on having kids, the western world isn't overpopulated, people are having 1 or 2 children at most in the civilized world, because let's face it, while it's a wonderful thing to have children they are a hassle.

Neither overpopulation nor lack of food is causing world hunger.  The population growth rate is shrinking and set to stabilize in a couple hundred years.  Also, the world does produce enough food to feed everybody.  The reason people are starving in certain parts of the world has to do with other factors.  It has to do with their political, economic and religious institutions.  It has to do with their culture.

Right, I didnt mean to reply to you specifically (sorry).  I just wanted to reject the notion that overpopulation or lack of food are causing world hunger.

Yep.  There is more than ample agricultural capacity to feed everybody.  The problem isn't production it is distribution and theft.

For all you twenty somethings saying NO MORE CHILDREN, let me point out that the alarmist jackass Paul Ehrlich embraced exactly that notion in his seminal work of alarmist stupidity The Population Bomb when he warned, famously and wrongly,
Quote:
of the mass starvation of humans in the 1970s and 1980s due to overpopulation, as well as other major societal upheavals, and advocated immediate action to limit population growth.


Where would you be now?

13.step

Africa has Allot of very fertile grounds. China knows this and invests Billions into food production and infrastructure in Africa. In order to feed their growing Chinese population.

And to people who just blatantly say not to have kids. The world doesn't work that way. Furthermore the reason most of Africa is the shithole it is is because of the Western colonization era and the ensuing land divisions when they left. Which sparked many tribal wars. And of course we wouldn't be the west if we didn't feed those wars with our weapons :smile:

if you want to curb population don't stop at the retarded malthus equation that we should let people die to balance things out. figure out an effecient way to stop breeding. put some sort of drug that makes men infertile in a a variety of american made products like food, shampoo, etc, at least it would stimulate our economy in a real way and actually do something to stop the fuck up of africa. i hate some of the user's logic on this board they stop at "just have the intention of not having kids, stop there, don't help africa, let everyone starve to death, everything will balance itself out" its stupid hippie rhetoric it's not how things in the real world work, just because everything worked out OK in your acid trip doesnt mean it's going to work out for ecology  (liberals!!!)

They didn't have tribal wars before that?  Do you know who sold most of the slaves to the ship captains?  Other Africans.

Well we don't know since we do not have records. They had well established borders separating tribes and hunting grounds which we totally changed after colonization. Which led to many tribal wars and land disputes. That much is well documented history.

I don't understand you're second statement? Slaves selling slaves? Why the hell would whites give money to people which they enslave anyway. But we are getting off-topic.

Aser said:
I was thinking the other day. Nothing in particular was really focused on, but an idea came to mind.

People are starving every day. Richer nations send them food, but it is never enough.

Meanwhile we waste massive amounts of food each day sheltering homeless animals. These animals are eating all of our food, and all they do is sit in a cage all day and eventually get euthanized.

What if instead of them being a food sink, we put all of these homeless pets to use. I figure that if the cats and dogs were butchered, they would not only provide a large source of meat that could be given to the starving, they would also not be consuming food that could be better used elsewhere.

Just a thought.


I suggest you actually research famine because then you will learn that famines don't have much to do with a lack of food, it's more about infrastructure, corruption, and resource allocation.
