Overpopulation problems, need management
 

I think we should do some "wildlife management" on people. Overcrowding
causes diseases to be spread easily. I wonder how much the states will
charge for a hunting license and what the bag limit of humans would be?
I see no difference in this than in any other "management".

We already do. It is called war and famine. When the resources are
stressed to the breaking point, the "management plan" is invoked.
It has been that way since we climbed down out of that tree to eat
things on the ground.


So, let's recap. You want to kill animals off so that they don't suffer
from famine, but it's okay for man to suffer that plight? Again, war has
nothing to do with this. Unless it's still your posit that soldiers are
killing for sport.


If you believe the current science, global warming will be the 22d
century management program. Places that used to be verdant will become
deserts and those populations will want to move into more temperate
zones. I doubt the current inhabitants will give up the land without a
fight ... they never do.

That is why we have Pentagon studies of global warming trends.


Again, why not let nature take it's course with animals? It's good
enough for man, it should be good enough for animals.

That is what Greg said. He said famine and war takes care of the humans,
but he insists that animals need to be hunted to so that they don't have
to suffer the ravages of famine.

Famine and war are the governors of human population control.

Why not?

It's good for the folks who like things the way they are. The only
ones who need a steady increase in population are those who have
bought into the urban consumerist mentality. If you know how to
subsist from the land, and obviously the early settlers did, why do
you need a growing population? The early settlers in New England all
tended towards large families because that was the fashion of the day
and it was good to have extra hands working the farm. By the early
1800s however there was no longer enough land to go around and that is
when the great westward migration began. By the mid 1800s the
industrial revolution was in full swing and it was no longer necessary
to own land to make a living. That is when the notion of population
growth leading to economic growth began to take hold. If you reverse
all that and go back to an agricultural economy with a smaller
population, a state of equilibrium can be reached for those who are
happy with that life style.

OK, turn off the water heaters at the power plant and let nature take
it's course.

That's too logical, and what would all of the lawyers who work for the
Save The Manatee Club do for a living? That's the whole problem of

That looks like where Donny's little island is headed. Donny might even
outlive the solvency of his pension fund. Should he obtain a plot of
land and start a potato patch to keep himself afloat?

Why would you say that? He's right. I have a garden every year, and
while it doesn't provide me with complete sustenance, I do like to eat
the fresh veggies, make pickles etc. There is a satisfaction associated
with it, and I'm helping the environment on many levels.

You tolerate Slammer. No one in his right mind tolerates him. You

anyone who will tolerate you because without them you have no one to

Apparently, if Harry isn't stirring up enough ****, somebody will jump

Why would you want to do that? You don't post anything interesting about

It's good for the folks who like things the way they are. The only
ones who need a steady increase in population are those who have
bought into the urban consumerist mentality. If you know how to
subsist from the land, and obviously the early settlers did, why do
you need a growing population? The early settlers in New England all
tended towards large families because that was the fashion of the day
and it was good to have extra hands working the farm. By the early
1800s however there was no longer enough land to go around and that is
when the great westward migration began. By the mid 1800s the
industrial revolution was in full swing and it was no longer necessary
to own land to make a living. That is when the notion of population
growth leading to economic growth began to take hold. If you reverse
all that and go back to an agricultural economy with a smaller
population, a state of equilibrium can be reached for those who are
happy with that life style.

That looks like where Donny's little island is headed. Donny might even
outlive the solvency of his pension fund. Should he obtain a plot of
land and start a potato patch to keep himself afloat?

Why not?

It's good for the folks who like things the way they are. The only
ones who need a steady increase in population are those who have
bought into the urban consumerist mentality. If you know how to
subsist from the land, and obviously the early settlers did, why do
you need a growing population? The early settlers in New England
all
tended towards large families because that was the fashion of the
day
and it was good to have extra hands working the farm. By the early
1800s however there was no longer enough land to go around and
that is
when the great westward migration began. By the mid 1800s the
industrial revolution was in full swing and it was no longer
necessary
to own land to make a living. That is when the notion of population
growth leading to economic growth began to take hold. If you
reverse
all that and go back to an agricultural economy with a smaller
population, a state of equilibrium can be reached for those who are
happy with that life style.

That looks like where Donny's little island is headed. Donny might
even
outlive the solvency of his pension fund. Should he obtain a plot of
land and start a potato patch to keep himself afloat?

You tolerate Slammer. No one in his right mind tolerates him. You
tolerate Don because he gives you someone to play off of. You tolerate
anyone who will tolerate you because without them you have no one to
talk WITH.

Apparently, if Harry isn't stirring up enough ****, somebody will jump

could we move on to boating?



Why would you want to do that? You don't post anything interesting about
boating.


Anyone who does is of course setting themselves up for your jealous

I am not aware of any boat owned by another poster here that I would want.

John, c'mon. Unloading on a guy just pumps it up to another level. We
can stop this crap, if we just bite our lip and NOT respond.

Proof? Show me ONE response to Harry that ever did more than escalate
the "violence." Ignoring him drives him nuts. Want proof? Look at his
responses to me.


I agree wholeheartedly. That's why I very seldom respond to his ****. But, you jumped (somewhat) on
Oscar for speaking his mind. In doing so, you not so subtly spoke yours. Why anyone continuously
responds to Harry is totally beyond me. Oscar hit it on the head.

The same is true of Iboater (loogy, kevin, or whoever).

Oscar, Herring, Snotty, Bertbrain, Canuck, and iLoogy. I do respect Tim,

like John. You don't like Greg. You don't like Scott. You don't like
Bert. You don't like Cannuck. You don't like Ibooger.Am I missing anyone?
You tolerate Slammer. No one in his right mind tolerates him. You
tolerate Don because he gives you someone to play off of. You tolerate
anyone who will tolerate you because without them you have no one to
talk WITH.


Sounds like someone is a bit jealous.
If you could learn to act your age, maybe Harry would tolerate you!


You sure do like speaking for your boyfriend, I'll give you that!


My statement must have hit home for you also, eh?


Not at all. I'm just observing how you seem to jump to your lover's
defense at every available opportunity.

It's good for the folks who like things the way they are. The only
ones who need a steady increase in population are those who have
bought into the urban consumerist mentality. If you know how to
subsist from the land, and obviously the early settlers did, why do
you need a growing population? The early settlers in New England all
tended towards large families because that was the fashion of the day
and it was good to have extra hands working the farm. By the early
1800s however there was no longer enough land to go around and that is
when the great westward migration began. By the mid 1800s the
industrial revolution was in full swing and it was no longer necessary
to own land to make a living. That is when the notion of population
growth leading to economic growth began to take hold. If you reverse
all that and go back to an agricultural economy with a smaller
population, a state of equilibrium can be reached for those who are
happy with that life style.


That looks like where Donny's little island is headed. Donny might even
outlive the solvency of his pension fund. Should he obtain a plot of
land and start a potato patch to keep himself afloat?
