People in the U.S.

In the last sixty years, from 1930 to 1990, the population of the United States has almost doubled.

Many of our frustrations and complaints and difficulties, from delicning standards of living to road rage, stem from simply too many people.We have in our nation simply too many people who naturally enough possess basic and psychic and enculturated American human needs. Our wealth and resources are badly distributed. In sixty years, this nation has had to provide sustenance, housing, education, work, and pleasure for twice as many people. The genuine causes and results of a rapidly expanding population -- ignorance, carelessness, economic necessity, poverty, disease are not addressed. Projections into the future are neither comforting nor reassuring.
