Interesting. I've seen a population rise and rise until overcrowding was
severe in mice. And all is well for a while, but eventually they start
to turn on each other and fight and kill. One day, in a cage of females
and immatures with only one mature male, we found the male, dead, with
his brain eaten out (the only sign of injury on him). All this occurred
in a high school biology classroom, but I do feel
overcrowding/overpopulation is far too often discounted when it comes to
humans. And the mice, after all, were being fed no matter how many they
numbered, food was never in short supply--it was simply the
overcrowding, apparently, that caused the strife.

Either way reduces the population. It's just a question of how. Unless
something new breaks, 'when' is almost predictable to within a few years.
[Most likely within your kids lifetime]
If something new does break...more and more people to bust the new system
and the crash [involving even MORE people] just gets delayed.
Ever stop to wonder why so many young people are so self destructive these
days?
An unsustainable cycle will cycle into destruction. It's just a common
sense given.
