At the moment it is a big enough pie, however if we let
the market rip off the environment and of most of humanity
it won't be. This is also where the population growth slowing problem
converges to. You chop the population in half with whatever
nasty means, and poverty/malnutrition will be still abound,
as it was in the dark ages, when population problem did not exist.
Avoid this and go on about blaiming the great unwashed for
multiplying, won't take you very far.
