Your best friend for information on why things are how they are today is in History books. History does repeat itself and I do believe a world war is in the near future. In the 20th century up until 1975 an estimated 100 million people were killed in the world due to wars. So to date I would say we added a whole lot more.
We do not have enough resources to sustain many more people, especially with the developing nations starting to have more people drive. Why do you think crude oil is so high, the easy to get oil is gone, now they have to spend more just to get it. I know the talking heads on FOX told you we have a 100 years of oil here in our own nation but sorry, it's not true. Find someone who works in the oil industry or retired from it and see if they will give you a little insight into the truth about existing oil supplies and how costly it is to retrieve it. And this world, especially America needs oil to keep the lifestyle we all want and keep it running.
They will solve overpopulation, probably by reading the Nazi playbook and using modern technology to improve on it.
You are contradicting yourself. They will solve overpopulation by using the same playbook, but you admitted not more than 100M died in two world wars. In fact the population of western Europe stayed still during the world war. And many held off child birth till after the war. In the rest of the world population kept increasing.
World war is not a solution to global overpopulation. As pointed our before, overpopulation is a local problem, not a global problem. We will not help Nigeria by getting fewer children in the west. It doesn't work that way. The only thing that can help Nigeria is fewer children in Nigeria.
In all likelihood the consequence of overpopulation is hunger in those countries that are overpopulated.

Turn the TV off and get a history book. I bet a lot of people on here just might get hooked.
Your first book that I recommend and it's real short so I know most of you can handle that is, The Cunning of History By Richard L. Rubenstien. It will answer some questions for you on population control.
Every prediction about human overpopulation and resource depletion has been wrong. Matter of fact, they haven't even been close. Go ahead and keep reading fairy tales if you want.
By the way, I have a degree in demography (population studies). I've read them all. They are all nonsense not based in reality.
Space colonization, via orbiting habitats. Large habitats. Utilizing nearby fusion reactor for power, and various celestial bodies for raw materials, there's enough "elbow room" for humanity to keep its geometric growth in population for at least another 2000 years.
No I love big families I personally have 634 know blood relatives.
So your family is part of the problem then.
