Yeah, the meme about the world being overpopulated really needs go away. Having fewer people doesn't mean "more for the rest of us" but fewer people doing useful work.
Morally I find the notion that the Earth is overpopulated to be evil. The problems we see from “overpopulation” is not too many humans, but instead artificial scarcity and a shortage in land.
Consequently I don’t believe the people who say space colonization won’t fix most of our issues.
Sounds great, so long as it’s not me or anyone I care about.
I should have worded that as "all humans" instead of "some humans"
