We're not really overcrowded in this country- large swathes of this nation are essentially untamed wildernes. Hell, Southern New Jersey is basically woddland with a few towns here and there. I won't even talk about how empty the West is.
Overcrowding occurs becuase certain places are a magnet for Americans- Manhattan, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Miami etc. etc. Those places become crowded not because there isn't enough space in this country, but because people voluntarily move there.
I realize I'm going seriously off-topic.
By the year 2000, the population density of New Jersey exceeded that of Japan and India.
I do recall that in New Jersey, they have been having the darndest time trying to allow the hunting of black bears.
Go to those empty areas of New Jersey, and then tell me what the laws are in those empty ares concerning the right to bear arms. Tell me what any of the laws are like in those empty areas of NJ.
If people do not awake to the erosion of American freedom from population growth, you will lose your freedom.
I won't even talk about how empty the West is.
Keep the west.
The best place to live is the seacoast town, with the limitless ocean to one side and limitless forests and mountains to your back; best of everythin--but no longer: it's now a teeming shore crawling with hordes of people, many of them turned liberals thanks the crowding turning their minds to mush.
