      I mean seriously, the first thought that came to my mind was: “How is this better for nature? They are going to poison the shit out of the ocean around their shores dumping their shit right into it because they’ve got nowhere else for it to go, because it’s still too many people for that area.

      Even if they try to build septic, it’s just too damn small for it to not be leeching into the water unless they dig the septic tank insanely deep.

      Wouldn’t a water treatment facility for that much wastewater take up about as much space as the living area? What about electricity generation? And where is fresh water coming from?

      These fucking simplistic ass views will be the death of us.

      There was an episode of Sliders where Thomas Malthus was a significant person and the global population was kept under 250 million.

      It sounded nice, even with the lottery system.
