    You:

    Higher rates of population growth can be good

    Commenter before you:

    I’m always shocked when people who understand infinite growth is a fallacy when it comes to the corporate world, don’t understand that trying to grow the population into infinity year after year is just the government equivalent of that fallacy

    Sure “the higher rates of population growth” can be good. Usually for the wealthy and or privileged classes though, and ultimately always they don’t solve the underlying issue causing the original problem.

      Equating advocacy for planning for projected near- and middle-term population changes with advocacy for “infinite” growth is exactly the lack of nuance that frustrates me.
