    The earth does not have too many people though. We are not at risk of overpopulation by any real metric.

    Resource scarcity is not a result of too many people needing not enough resources, but a result of those resources not being spread evenly. Whether because of geographical or political reasons, typically a mix of both.

      It’s not about humanity it is about Earth. We aren’t meant to divide her resources to 8 billion people in any distribution. Your magical solution to distribute all resources evenly doesn’t really solve human driven climate change and destruction of our environments. And it’s not about convincing me ask yourself why would a commercial planet have too many staff members that’s bad for business.
