"That would have been extremely foolish"??

Dwindling resources, increasing demand for those resources, and global warming are because of too many people, especially those with high standards of living. Overpopulation is killing this planet, and the faster the population grows the faster the planet will die. Ben and Phil have done a great disservice to the world.

It's human nature, at least in America, to do nothing until a problem hits us square in the face. Once people realize that there are too many people, it will be too late. The time to take action is now; waiting until open spaces are gone, wildlife species have been driven to extinction, natural resources have been depleted beyond repair, and numerous other negative consequences of human overpopulation have occurred, it will be too late to do anything about it.

To say that the world is in trouble due to underpopulation is so far from the truth that I am amazed that someone of Michael Barone's intelligence would actually write such a statement. Incredibly irresponsible.
