"So other than a nanny state, what do you think ought to be the "cure" for overconsumption?" Sterilization of breeders. Population reduction.

Ted, if you think the problem is overconsumption (and I'm not disagreeing with you), then the best remedy for that would be a prolonged recession. I don't think we have a choice......we are in a recession. Yet you are not only against that, but you are for the government doing everything in its power to cut it off via stimulus and bailout. I want the stimulus to prevent a depression. I recession is a given. So other than a nanny state, what do you think ought to be the "cure" for overconsumption? Only ideologues believe gov'ts providing econ. stimulus is a nanny state.
