I think that there are hugely overpopulated areas and cities and stuff. But there are HUGE masses of unpopulated land. If people could just spread out a little bit I don't know that it would be such a big issue. I mean, most of the population of Canada is found right at the border, meaning this huge area is empty.

I heard somewhere that if everyone in the United States owned one acre of land, we all could fit in Florida and half of Georgia.

That's not good enough. Humans are selfish.

Nah... i don't think that's it... you have businesses, stores, everything needs to be spread out, i understat that person's message, saying that the US is not as populated as we think it is, but no, it's not selfish to want to live on 4 or 5 acres of land...

by Anonymous12 years ago
Yeah. Overpopulated? More like unevenly distributed.

Over half of earth population lives in 1/13th of the total land mass.
by Anonymous12 years ago
That total land mass includes water, and places that are practically impossible to live in.

I didn't know that included the water, that makes it even worse.
It's hard for them to move too, because most of them are very poor.

Overpopulation means that the resources being produced do not meet the needs of the population. Since there are quite obviously many people who have nothing to eat, the world is overpopulated.
by Anonymous12 years ago
The world actually currently produces enough food to feed the world twice but producers aren't willing to contribute some of that to the poor because it isn't economically smart, even if the food is going to waste anyway.

You're American, you hardly have a right to say this anyway. You are just 1 in fucking 0.31 billion in your country.

I'm American. I, actually, have the right to say whatever I want.
by Anonymous12 years ago
Not necessarily. Actually, not at all. You can't say whatever you want. Try going to the White House and say "Obama iz a niggger lmao!!!!".
by Anonymous12 years ago
I can legally say that. Unless I break in, I have the right to my opinion. The only "gray" area is threatening someones life. Unless I say, I AM GOING TO SHOOT THE PRESIDENT (Secret Service Officers: I am purely using this as an example. Please do not come survey my house. Thank you for your dedicated work to our country), I'm good to go.

You CAN say what I said, but you'd get a punch in the face from that black president of yours.

If you'd been to Japan, America would seem to have tons of space!
