#8  This is about Medicaid. Some Republicans want to impose a per capita cap in the Federal share of Medicaid. The Federal share ranges from about 60% to 80% depending on the State.

Abut 80 million people rely on Medicaid. Because there is no cap, there is less incentive for efficiency.

#7  That's systemic racism, Grom. C'mon, you should know that.

#6  I saw it claimed the other day that what with the unadmitted Covid deaths and considerably lower-than-claimed birthrates for some time — and looking at the evidence of a variety of indicators that I’m afraid I don’t remember — China’s population is currently about 900 million instead of the claimed 1.4 billion.

Sarah Hoyt separately has claimed that in much of the world, whether for pride or to get more aid money, birth rates have been lower than claimed for as much as two generations.

#5  ^With our birthrates where they are, the world is about to go through a huge depopulation event. 8.2 billion people now, but estimations that by 2100 we will be at 6 billion. And the Han ethnicity will be down to 500 million at least.

Studies on how many people can the EARTH Feed & support humanly.

While looking at the chart, note a majority of the studies indicate we are at a tipping point now.

If this be the case????

#2  Is overpopulation still a thing? If so, people dying is good, right? Gotta save the planet!

It is so hard to keep the various apocalypses straight. After surviving through two or three, you just kind of lose track.
