Malthus Lives!


The belief that overpopulation will inevitably lead to universal misery was first articulated by the economist Thomas Malthus. I am more inclined to believe that said misery would unravel in a world run by Obama-esque liberals but, cela va sans dire. Despite the faulty economic reasoning behind his theory, namely, the scant attention given to the influence of human production, his disciples are alive and well in the twenty-first century. They are most prominently featured in the environmentalist cabal.
