    And if things get really bad, we can always ship the survivors off to Antarctica where, unlike the North Pole, the ice shelf appears to be growing. Then the joke would be even less comprehensible. Why don’t polar bears eat penguins? But they do, actually!

    BTL doom and gloomers

    They are so funny, population increases and N of houses doesn't --> creating demand. Creating DC much dough as desirable by product.

    Well hold on, he does have a point. A high population is important - it keeps up the prices of houses, oil, and all other resources, meaning that we're QUIDS IN!

    It provides an endless supply of immigrants to work for nothing so the rest of us can retire at 50 and live a life of luxury.

    Over-populated third world countries give us somewhere to send our money.

    There's no downside, really...
