This has to be the most pathetic ****ing contest I have ever

Two pompous pricks pontificating about their money and then

Why don't you two get a room, or at least take it to email.


All together, now:

"Kum ba-ya, my Lord, Kum ba-ya. Kum ba-ya............"

My best guess is that you're mired in credit-card debt, sucker.

You, of all people on roff, should be
among the first to be appalled and disgusted that anyone in their
right mind could, in the 21st century, declare in public that
"Malthus was correct."
Ken Fortenberry


Whether or not he was a racist, in an otherwise unchecked populace, famine,
disease, & war will reduce populations to the limits that the ecological
area can support. I don't have to like the man or his other beliefs to
acknowledge that populations do not increase unchecked.

Wait a few years until Bird flu makes the genetic leap into the common human
strains and we'll continue this discussion. If we both can.

The last time I looked, factoring out immigration, the US has a negative
(essentially zero) population growth.

I don't think that we can factor out immigration. And once they are in the
populace, legal or not, if they give birth, it counts.

And over-population is a problem for the entire world to deal with. I think
limiting birth rates in the industrialize world will not go far enough to
resolve the problem.

I don't have a penny of credit card debt, and yet somehow I too find
public paroxysms of condescending, self-satisfied, self-congratulatory
hubris on the part of middle-aged, upper-middle-class white guys more than
a little smarmy.

Ken, I realize I shouldn't take joy in it, but annoying you *is* fun. Always
has been.
