Growth is not always progress and progress isn’t always growth. I can’t agree more. Look at the obesity epidemic or cancer. We’ve grown into a gluttonous blob as a culture. To me, it’s not about eugenics—or population management—but about quality. Of course, that relies on the working definition of “quality.” As a society, don’t we need a social contract? The one we have doesn’t work. We need to get together, somehow (haven’t figured that out), and reassess. We need to make a new social contract and as equal members, we legislate our values, our vision of the future. I disagree that just having more people = better. I see people, all people, as potential. They can obviously, with their behavior and choices, opt out. I believe that there is coming an event or series of events that will force people to make some decisions that will determine their quality.
