schestowitz | China is ahead of the curve | Oct 24 05:26 |
schestowitz | Their labour and maternity policies will come almost everywhere | Oct 24 05:26 |
schestowitz | Maybe with backlash | Oct 24 05:27 |
ender2070 | you mean 8 months into pregnancy, cops around the world will be kicking women in the stomach? | Oct 24 05:31 |
abeNd-org | killing of any child that is not male? | Oct 24 05:31 |
ender2070 | perhaps | Oct 24 05:33 |
ender2070 | why not? | Oct 24 05:33 |
ender2070 | weird thing is my teacher told me that policy was no longer in effect | Oct 24 05:34 |
ender2070 | yet, women gets kicked in the stomach | Oct 24 05:34 |
ender2070 | communism, gotta love it | Oct 24 05:34 |
abeNd-org | you would be hard pressed to convince the ole right to lifers to go along with that one | Oct 24 05:34 |
abeNd-org | then again, they only do that in countries where they wont get thrown in jail instantly for opposing the govt | Oct 24 05:35 |
ender2070 | jail costs too much | Oct 24 05:35 |
ender2070 | you'll get killed or disappeared | Oct 24 05:35 |
abeNd-org | and no one will care, or if they do, would be afraid it would happen to them as well | Oct 24 05:36 |
ender2070 | you only go to jail if they think they can reprogram you | Oct 24 05:36 |
abeNd-org | meh, no one ever comes out of jail reprogrammed | Oct 24 05:36 |
abeNd-org | drunk drivers go right to the bar & get drunk & try to kill another person on the way home that night | Oct 24 05:37 |
abeNd-org | same with rapists, killers, etc | Oct 24 05:37 |
ender2070 | in china? | Oct 24 05:38 |
abeNd-org | id guess in any country | Oct 24 05:38 |
schestowitz | [05:34] <ender2070> weird thing is my teacher told me that policy was no longer in effect | Oct 24 05:39 |
ender2070 | yeah | Oct 24 05:39 |
ender2070 | crazy | Oct 24 05:39 |
schestowitz | As I understand it, they have an incentive system now | Oct 24 05:39 |
abeNd-org | yea, they eat better than i do, & since they dont have a job they can work out & read books all day | Oct 24 05:39 |
ender2070 | is the incentive not getting kicked in the stomach? | Oct 24 05:39 |
schestowitz | Better healthcare, school, money for families with less children; the West does it the opposite way | Oct 24 05:39 |
schestowitz | In Japan, population decline is natural due to careers culture | Oct 24 05:40 |
ender2070 | In canada the average number of kids is 1.5 | Oct 24 05:40 |
ender2070 | muslim countries, 3.6 | Oct 24 05:40 |
abeNd-org | yea, would you feel like getting it on after working 12+ hours a day every day? | Oct 24 05:41 |
schestowitz | Japan maybe less than 1 now | Oct 24 05:41 |
ender2070 | anyone else have other numbers? | Oct 24 05:41 |
ender2070 | whats it in UK? | Oct 24 05:41 |
ender2070 | USA has 1.5 too | Oct 24 05:41 |
schestowitz | Before or after the collapse of the economy? :-) | Oct 24 05:41 |
schestowitz | Don't forget immigration | Oct 24 05:41 |
ender2070 | births | Oct 24 05:41 |
schestowitz | That's where population growth comes from | Oct 24 05:41 |
ender2070 | same in Canada | Oct 24 05:41 |
schestowitz | US to be 70ml by 2020 IIRC | Oct 24 05:42 |
abeNd-org | yea, immigration...so if people hate the usa so much, why does anyone bother to immigrate there, be it legally or illegally? | Oct 24 05:42 |
ender2070 | Canada's fertility rate keeps going down | Oct 24 05:42 |
ender2070 | it maintains 1% growth through immigration | Oct 24 05:42 |
schestowitz | Chemicals.. :-) | Oct 24 05:42 |
ender2070 | each year, more and more immigrants are let in | Oct 24 05:42 |
abeNd-org | no one has time to, "increase the population" anymore | Oct 24 05:42 |
ender2070 | and they're all sent to a single region, peel | Oct 24 05:42 |
ender2070 | chemicals is right | Oct 24 05:43 |
ender2070 | CBC told us it was Bisphenol A | Oct 24 05:43 |

ender2070 | LOL | Oct 24 05:43 |
abeNd-org | BPA? | Oct 24 05:43 |
ender2070 | yes | Oct 24 05:43 |
ender2070 | we finally banned it | Oct 24 05:43 |
ender2070 | last week | Oct 24 05:43 |
abeNd-org | thats supposed to be banned here stateside, but it seems like every week another product is found with it | Oct 24 05:44 |
ender2070 | its a toxic substance that damages neurological functions | Oct 24 05:44 |
abeNd-org | manufacture just says "oops, didnt realize it, sorry" | Oct 24 05:44 |
ender2070 | BPA was first discovered when scientists were trying to find a method of birth control | Oct 24 05:44 |
ender2070 | they discovered it was excellent at hardening plastics | Oct 24 05:44 |
ender2070 | then, coincidently its added to everything and fertility drops 75% | Oct 24 05:44 |
ender2070 | bam | Oct 24 05:45 |
abeNd-org | humans will end themselves, one way or another | Oct 24 05:45 |
ender2070 | i think it was done on purpose | Oct 24 05:45 |
ender2070 | think about it | Oct 24 05:45 |
ender2070 | projections show there will be 9 billion people in 2050 | Oct 24 05:45 |
ender2070 | what do you think the rich elite will do about it? | Oct 24 05:45 |
ender2070 | you think they might try to protect the food for their children to come? perhaps | Oct 24 05:46 |
ender2070 | i would | Oct 24 05:46 |
abeNd-org | wall themselves up in their impervious self sustaining supercomplexes by that time | Oct 24 05:46 |
ender2070 | remember these people are darwinists by religion, not by logic | Oct 24 05:47 |

ender2070 | ronald reagan even mentioned it | Oct 24 05:49 |
ender2070 | in the 80's | Oct 24 05:49 |
abeNd-org | real aliens wouldnt want anything to do with this screwed up planet, or would wipe out all life so nothing consumes further resources & just mine the planet barren | Oct 24 05:49 |
ender2070 | if there were real aliens I think they would take the smartest male, smartest female, and book it | Oct 24 05:50 |
abeNd-org | yep, they gotta have something for their zoo :) | Oct 24 05:50 |
ender2070 | hahaha lol | Oct 24 05:51 |
abeNd-org | alls i know is, im glad i live out in the boonies (at least until urban sprawl makes its way out here) | Oct 24 05:53 |
abeNd-org | its nice (for work) to live near a large city, but shesh, how does anyone get any sleep actually living in a large city | Oct 24 05:54 |
abeNd-org | about the worst i have to deal with out here is the crickets, sometime some wild animal making noise | Oct 24 05:54 |
ender2070 | you adapt to it | Oct 24 05:55 |
abeNd-org | ill pass :) | Oct 24 05:55 |
ender2070 | there were some studies done and interestingly enough they tried having some people from way way way north (native americans) come to the city and they had to go back early because of the noise | Oct 24 05:56 |
ender2070 | and im glad to know that you're aware of the urban sprawls | Oct 24 05:57 |
ender2070 | :) | Oct 24 05:57 |
ender2070 | the sucky thing is, if you live out in the boonies they are going to make life difficult with the building codes | Oct 24 05:58 |
abeNd-org | yea, they just built a walmart within 10 miles of here, so i figure another 10 yrs should turn this pretty area into an unrecognizable cement jungle | Oct 24 05:58 |
ender2070 | especially if theres a walmart | Oct 24 05:59 |
