The Population Fix: Breaking America Addiction to Population Growth, Edward C. Hartman, 2006, ISBN 0977612503

There are few problems in present-day America, from water shortages to traffic congestion to over-crowded schools, that are not exacerbated by America addiction to population growth. This book aims to change that.


The author places much of the blame on a high rate of net migration (not just illegal immigrants) and a high fertility rate among some groups. There are many groups who benefit by high population growth,Christian Louboutin Madame Butterfly Pump chaussures 100mmvente au rabais, and like things just the way they are. Among them are builders and developers, farmers,Mbt Flame Red schwarz Frauen Walking-Schuhe, the hospitality industry,Hogan nouvelle beige interactive femmes 2012, food processors and middle class Americans. Supposedly, these would all collapse if it wasn for cheap foreign labor unwilling to demand a decent wage and decent working conditions out of fear of being deported. Why are middle class Americans included as part of the problem? How many people hire someone to mow their lawn or take care of their pool,HOGAN VALENCIA DONNA ORO ARGENTO, instead of doing it themselves?

What would happen if all 10 million (or so) illegal immigrants in America suddenly left? First of all, the world would not come to an end. Young people who spend their days on cellphones or playing computer games would get a taste of some honest hard work. Native-born Americans would be able to demand better wages and working conditions from farmers and builders who presently pay illegal immigrants as little as possible. Less money would be needed for infrastructure (like schools and road repair).

America addiction to population growth also has many victims. For those just out of prison,MBT Tunisha Schwarz DaMännerschuhe, the best way to stay out is with a job, even a menial one. Every illegal alien dishwasher, for example, means one more parolee who doesn have a chance to better himself. What about illegal aliens who are killed or maimed on the job? Students are affected because rampant population growth forces school districts to build more schools or cram more and more students into each school.

What is to be done? First of all, decide for yourself, how many people is enough? How big should America get? If a politician talks about "smart growth" or easing immigration rules, don be afraid to call them on it. If a magazine or newspaper seems to have a pro-growth bias,Christian Louboutin chaussures Mireille 70mmLivraison gratuite pour vous, cancel your subscription, and tell them why. If you need to hire employees, even just someone to mow your lawn,Christian Louboutin Pigalle Platon 120mm chaussures NudeLivraison gratuite pour vous, make sure they can converse in English. If you find that you have unknowingly hired an illegal alien,chick here, fire them, but do it legally. Donate to groups involved in population, fertility or net migration.

This is a very interesting book that will really get the reader thinking in a different way. It worth reading.
