Traveling from coast to coast by car in our country, as I have done several times, will quickly put that misconception to rest. Our cities are crowded, but only because people tend to cluster together voluntarily due to the greater opportunity for business and commerce in more densely populated areas. Each man, woman and child would have 1500 square feet of living space. Also the population of the world would have standing room in one-fourth of the area of Jacksonville, Florida. Prices, a good indicator of availability, continue to fall for all commodities, indicating increasing supply, and even the Carter administration's gloomy Global 2000 report admitted as much.
Energy resources continue to increase as well.
The availability of energy has been increasing, and the meaningful cost has been decreasing over the entire span of humankind's history. We have been had. This is not a new lie. When satan finds a winner, he sticks with it. Plato and Aristotle worried about overpopulation about four centuries before Christ, as did Confucius and other Chinese thinkers.
