It would be better to control births than control deaths. I have to agree, but unfortunately just barely below the surface of logical thinking modern society is the instinct that breeding is good. And the more the merrier. It's in our genes, unfortunately. Or in my case, in my jeans.

One thing that surprises me is that I haven't heard it called COPOUT26 yet. Surely I must have missed it!

And the more the merrier. It's in our genes, unfortunately. Or in my case, in my jeans. Most other urges have been disallowed or at least moderated by civilisation. Only breeding remains intact in its purest form.

My theory is that breeding is ok provided one does not go above the obvious number which is 2 children per woman. Basic replacement theory.
Obviously loads of people have more than that although the average does come somewhere close.
Without the reproduction at least to keep a stable population things would rapidly go wrong.
It's far more sensible to manipulate life expectancy downwards because as people get older they generally become less productive, more of a burden on society, hog the housing resources, own shares etc etc.
People should live to about 62 years old on average then the world would be a massively better place.
If that means I have to die in 15 years time to enable a better future for the little uns then so be it. Take me to the wall.
And I was like "tax breaks and lump sum payments for dying early ? I'm all in"

It would be better to control births than control deaths. Doesnt work, its better to have a cull it frees up huge funds and property, it would be a big rebalance, hospital waiting times gone in a stroke. We need the young not so much the old also the posotives Biden gone, Trump gone, mosy of the house of lords and parliament gone whats not to like?

As someone with small children I do find it rather sad that the world is being run by geriatrics.
Seems wrong really. They have no future. Ok so they have children and are looking after them on a personal and selfish level which is natural but in the bigger scheme it would be far better if people running the place were in their 30s or 40s with some life experience but also a future of some sort personally.
It's all buggered up.
Having said that not sure how great Macron is ! But then he is a banker so going to be a money grubbing scumbag anyway and look after his mates.
