Two for One
The world's population hit 3.25 billion during the Kennedy administration.
Pax America now has to guarantee peace for twice that many people.
With a 6.5 billion population, there are now 6 acres of land per person.
If you leave out deserts and mountains and such...each person has about one third of an acre of arable land to support them.
What would Thomas Malthus say these days?
The debate has shifted from whether everyone can survive to whether everyone can enjoy a first world lifestyle.
