Re: Overpopulation of Straw People

Alan-

1)
There would have been no reason for my post if various individuals of the
"overpopulation is no problem" camp hadn't asserted or implied that any of
us with the temerity to argue otherwise are at best dupes of capitalism.

2)
Your claim that noone in the "no problem" camp actually supports unlimited
population growth is the first time that's been said.

Bravo!

3)
The issue should be, not merely ideological critique of capitalism, which
is easy, but rather formulating the progressive position.  I've been
arguing that the population problem should recognized and made an
important part of our overall red/green strategy, as part of the overall
I=PCT framework.  I proposed that the policies of Kerala are a model in
that regard.

If people can't or won't distinguish between that and the capitalists'
strategy, then we're in sorrier shape than I thought.
