my mother land china just release next fiscal year plans for investment and grow. its gonna be a 65 trillion rmb(9 trillion dollars) investment target for 2017-2018, the plan was mainly driven the government/private sector/foreign investment. but mainly government because u know its china, over the past decade it has been steadily increase from 13 trillions a year in 2007 to now 65. basically u r looking at 5 trillion per year increase. at this point its now 80% of the gdp of the country being driven mainly by government spending/investment program, at this rate it wouldn't be long before 100% will be driven by government. this kind of debt driven economy model is now every where in the world, grow is a must and in order to grow u have to take on new debt. but the power/efficiency of each bucks u spend r gonna decrease in effect each time u use such mechanism, but theres no real alternative. as its now tie to stability for china. 7 million college/university grads come out to looking for job every year. if theres no grow then they all become huge stability issue to society, else where in the world also face similar issue.

about 7,000,000,000 people need to die at some point and when we're down to a comfortable 100-200mil we need to figure out how to keep it from getting out of control again.

it's going to have to happen anyway, machines are going to replace most every job from factory to pizza delivery to surgery to code monkeys. Won't be a smooth transition but I think it'll be worth it in the end.

any catastrophic event that lessened the population that much would allow for wolves to take over and they would finish off humans in less than a decade

Yeah those wolves with their intelligence, organized armies and siege equipment are going to be quite the hurdle to overcome, but I think we could pull through.

if we go from 7 billion to 200 million it's because we buttfucked ourselves or something else buttfucked us and that opening once again allows the wolf to expand greatly with territory and numbers and the population is too disconnected from primal instincts to be able to recover in time before extinction. A killing machine that also kills for fun just waiting for people to fuck up.
