Personally, I don’t see anything wrong with a zero population growth philosophy.

For one thing, you should take a close look at the people and organizations who support such philosophy, and then you'll get a clue.

Also, any philosophy that takes people as a neutral or liability rather than an asset is completely at odds with reality, including a mountain of empirical data. In a sense, probalems get solved when we have more people around to solve them.

That is what robots do. I take a look at the issues and decide what I think about them. I can agree with policy decision of individuals or groups without agreeing with the points that brought them to the conclusion.

I agreed with Hillary that we should go to war with Iraq. She came to the decision through political calculation, while I came to it through a security interest. I also agreed with many Democrats who voted against the Medicare Prescription bill. They didn't think it was socialist enough and I though it was too socialist.
