“The power of population is so superior to the power of earth to produce subsistence to humanity that premature death must in some shape or other visit the human race.” Thomas Malthus 1798
Population growth in less developed countries drives people to migrate to more developed - and less populated - countries such as the United States. Censorship of the population issue is just as problematic as censorship of the immigration issue.
While mass immigration is driving US population to double this century, human numbers overall are growing tremendously. World population has exceeded a staggering 7 billion people and is projected to continue to grow to 10 billion to 11 billion people.
