I quite like unchecked growth and have been promoting it for decades and doing it myself, putting a LOT of effort into the process. In fact, I have another grandson due to be born next month and a wonderful thing it is that he'll be born. <All of the negative things that are perceived in our societies are reactions to the unnatural and unchecked growth of the population. The progressive big government movements want to double down on the things that facilitate unchecked growth while at the same time dismantling the things that are needed to support it.> Governments are one of my major problems though. I certainly don't want them deciding for me that my grandchildren are undesirable. If they don't like their's then they should check their own growth. If they think there are too many people, they should do the decent thing. Economically too, I'm for unchecked growth. If I can produce a $gazillion in value with a flick of my little finger, all to the good. If somebody else can do that instead of me, thank you very very much. I appreciate your effort [small though it might be]. Look at the $trillions in value that have been created just this century by maybe 1 million Cyberspacoid Geeks. Heck, it takes only a few tens of them to create hundreds of $billions in value [Skype, Facebook, Google, bitcoin, Twitter]. People who dislike economic growth limit their imaginations to "Imagine if all the people in China and India drive around on vast freeways in dirty great SUVs like us". They then think OMG the air will be polluted and the world's resources will run out. Doom will be upon us. But economic growth is not a function of SUVs and freeways. Mqurice
