There are some folks who claim that the major gist of what he was saying was all of these forced sterilization ideas are worst case scenarios, things that might happen is we don’t embrace voluntary birth control.

We know from studying other mammals that sit high on the food chain that overpopulation is a self correcting problem. We’ve got pretty good brains, but it’s a complicated world. We don’t really even understand the weather, but the little we know about things like positive feedback loops give the folks who study them pause.

And of course, I have to laugh at the anti-abortionists crying “government interference.” As Anton Scalia would say: “It can go quite the other way.”

It’s not too many people, it’s how they are distributed. If you subscribe to the ‘blame humans first’ philosophy, then you should be the first to punch your own ticket.

- “We’re too many people; that’s why we have global warming.”…. “Too many people are using too much stuff,”… “A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal,” — Ted Turner

- “The [government] must put the most modern medical means in the service of this knowledge…. Those who are physically and mentally unhealthy and unworthy must not perpetuate their suffering in the body of their children…. The prevention of the faculty and opportunity to procreate on the part of the physically degenerate and mentally sick, over a period of only 600 years, would … free humanity from an immeasurable misfortune.”
– Adolph Hitler

- “The per capita income gap between the developed and the developing countries is increasing, in large part the result of higher birth rates in the poorer countries…. Famine in India, unwanted babies in the United States, poverty that seemed to form an unbreakable chain for millions of people–how should we tackle these problems?…. It is quite clear that one of the major challenges of the 1970s … will be to curb the world’s fertility.”
- George Bush Sr.

With the words from those well known signatures… it is clear that forced population control and eugenics is nothing new… and frankly speaking… when removing biblical ethics “from the table”… such thoughts do make sense… or?… survival of the fittest?… rather than socialism?

Anyway, it makes sense to me out of the fact, that the core of the problem haunting homo sapience with respect to maintaining a sustaining environment in this world “of ours” is, that the world population is far, far too high.
And, as for eugenics, I think the ludicrous election of US presidents ought to speak favorable of that element.

My firm opinion is that the world population must be reduced, one way or another, and it’s future growth rate must be curbed. Under the present poulation growth rates, the world population willl reach 9. billion within 30. years! That is 30% more than the present about 7. billion. Well, I find it plain grotesque, cruel and inhuman by the world leaders if they allow this to happen… FTP!

Ted Turners population of 250-300 million would of course put an end to his and others most profitable CO2 scam that he initiated, but, somehow I do believe that he is willing to scrap that business for a world recuperating from the perpetual rape it is subject to.

However, as far as I can see, the problem with overpopulation is slowly taken care of through the effect of environmental contamination, i.e. the effect of the plastic age with its numerous chemicals introduced to human nutrition, and which slowly (but ever faster) reduces the fertility of mankind in the western world. (More than 85 percent of the 80,000 synthetic chemicals registered have never been assessed for their effects on human health (!), and in 2002, an estimated $2.9 billion was spent on infertility treatments in the United States alone…. hmmm?… there is a new an profitable business in every misery created by mankind, aint it?

A drawback is however, that this environmental contamination effect is mostly prevailing in the western world, and not where the birth rate is real high, like Asia and Africa. But with the help of several “aid programs”, the chemicals caused infertility is of course also taking effect in the poor “underdeveloped” parts of the world, although far to slow and ineffective to reach Ted Turners figures in his lifetime.

Anyway, the numerous synthetic agents which act as hormone mimickers including dioxin, PCB’s, DDT and other pesticides, all work well for the reduction of the world population… or at least reducing their intellect and normal function to start with.

But, the most promising and surreptitious solution to the problem of world over population lies with MONSANTO I think. Gene manipulation. Recently I read an Austrian study on animals which concludes that GM corn has an unquestionable negative effect on fertility, and also cause changes to the genetic makeup which we cannot predict or understand fully at present. However, oservations like reduced kidney weight, infertility, and abnormal gene expression are serious consequences… even more so because they often did not show up until the third or fourth generation.

This means that if GM foods cause similar health problems in humans (why should it not?), we will not know it until it is too late for our children or grandchildren. Still to late for mr.Turner and Mr. Holdren to observe of course, but GM foods are most probably fulfilling their goals and dreams.

Well then folks, enjoy your breakfast with gene manipulated corn flakes and milk from gene manipulated food fed cows. You will make the dreams of Prince Philip, Papa Bush, Ted Turner, John P. Holdren, and the whole shadow government of the western world come through.

And finally, an even quicker solution to getting rid of the redundant mass of humans, is of course to release a nasty “swine flue” and only give a working vaccine to Turners 250-300 millions.
Far fetched? Nope! It is not that long ago that smallpox infected blankets was distributed to the americans indigenes.

Being an old Norwegian atheist myself… I am not hampered with any doctrines associated with religion… and hence I do not hold any feelings which favor humans above other life on this planet… hence I am of the opinion, that if the species homo sapience shall survive, it must be curbed… ’cause if not… the flora and fauna around us… upon which we all depend… will perish, and so will we.
