How best to reduce world population

01-25-11, 01:53 PM

Some think the world population is our most pressing problem. From global warming to capitalist greed if there were less people all ills would evaporate.

My sollution to the population problem, if it is indeed a problem, a position I don't ascribe to is.......ban penicillin and all anti-biotics world wide.

The population would decline quickly. Don't you think?

Abolish health care, remove smoking bans, institute the death penalty for capitol crimes worldwide.

Send them to Mars, terraforming crews have a prodigious death rate...

Good old fashioned global thermonuclear war, I say.

How best to implement the removal of penicillin from the world population? To be fair back to front method should be used. That is those who have caused the most trouble world wide from 1928 to today should lose the wonder drug first. Following that we can use a calender to see which areas received the blessings of penicillin and remove it.

That should bring the world population within manageable levels.

The discovery of penicillin is attributed to Scottish scientist and Nobel laureate Alexander Fleming in 1928.[12] He showed that, if Penicillium notatum were grown in the appropriate substrate, it would exude a substance with antibiotic properties, which he dubbed penicillin.

Or we could do things the good ole' North Korean way and lob a shell across our borders for no apparent reason..

Why not do this every other week?

Outlaw penicillin and only outlaws will have penicillin!

Imagine the narco police breaking down doors searching for pieces of moldy bread and arresting bio-chem students on suspicion of making antibiotics. It will be madness!!

Hmmm, after reading about the casultys from ww2, We should all go to war. That will fix it!

Or you could put bio chemicals in the water systems of large citys. that would work also.
