Debate about the world's population and control thereof tends to concentrate on the number of births. Bit what about the upper end? Our kids lives are going to be greatly affected by it.
I struck me that 50 years ago, people on average started work at 15 , retired at 60/65 then perhaps popped their clogs after 10 years if they were lucky.
Now, in the UK it seems we delay the onset of work until early 20's, retire at upto 68 and may live for some 20-30 years or more, often on daily medication.
So what, if anything should be done about it?
Concentrate on a better life for all than simply a long life, especaially at the top end? |

This is addressed at Bildeberg meetings with the World Health Organisation and now they admit to not only having the very meetings but discussing on behalf of us all how to combat it.
The big pharma firms have an input of course. As do those that control the food and water regs.
Delve into that and you may find that their plan will not only reduce life expectancy, the population and peoples ability to conceive

are populations increasing that dramatically in historically developed nations or does the problem lie in the tiger economies and the less developed areas of the world ? |
