Comments on: Population boom threatens Africa http://www.thenationalpolicyinstitute.org/2009/12/14/population-boom-threatens-africa/ Official Web site of the National Policy Institute Wed, 08 Feb 2012 22:25:09 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Lwesson http://www.thenationalpolicyinstitute.org/2009/12/14/population-boom-threatens-africa/#comment-29480 Lwesson Tue, 15 Dec 2009 16:15:44 +0000 http://www.nationalpolicyinstitute.org/?p=7532#comment-29480 I once dated a very nice girl whose parents worked in undeveloped parts of the world putting in infrastructure for clean water and the like. It was the first time that I gave it any serious thought that these undeveloped areas were undeveloped because of the society, the very people that reside there. Development I argued with her, did not come from outside in Europe for example. Development arose from within. I used the simple example of a flashlight. There is a huge infrastructure that allows for this useful tool but if I hand one out to say, a caveman, then it will only be used as long as the batteries and bulb worked and then it becomes some strange ornament. I could see smoke coming from her ears. I said that for example, India was a place with a population that exploded with the introduction of Western concepts of sanitation, medicine... . Had India remained free of Western influences there would NOT be an overblown population crisis. Essentially my reasoning crossed into the verboten dark region of prohibited thinking and that is about race and culture. So my electrical engineer girlfriend had a meltdown and stopped thinking on this subject favoring to go on with the notion that civilization simply can be given to a people as this is a happy kind thing to do and that there is no concept of developing from within that is correct when people need help. Pointing out that such "help" meant total guardianship if you don't want a human disaster meant nothing to her. I suggested that in a perverse way, Western Civilization is a curse to primitive states and that in the long run the "help" will turn such people into a curse upon the Developed World with the teaming wretched numbers wanting to come into the Developed World in drowning swarms. The book, Camp of the Saints, I suggested for a good read for her. I came to realize that even an electrical engineer needed to develop from within and I could not give her my thoughts on the matter as much as I helped her as she had turned her mind off. The LEFT has succeeded in shunting the thought process in her and eventually the teaming billions will spill into the lands of "milk and honey" and strip it as bare as any crumbled street in Kenya. One further note at this festive time of year: As the Ghost of Christmas Present revealed to Scrooge two urchins, IGNORANCE & WANT as the destroyers of mankind, I think that Charles Dickens had indeed understood the death blow gravity of the situation for his England and his Western World. It is not reasonable to just dance about throwing money out to just anyone for any whim of a reason but it is sane to help in ways that produce a nature, a spirit within that can help themselves. Dickens would be appalled to see his England turning into a devouring slum of aliens like that of the pathetic Kano, Nigeria. The Ghost of Christmas future presents a bleak future indeed.

I assume it is an education issue. They probably just don't know anything about contraception or pregnancy. When you are hungry why bring another child into the world to be hungry with you?

I assume it is an education issue. They probably just don’t know anything about contraception or pregnancy.
