Capitalism: Success, Crisis and Reform (PLSC 270) Professor Rae shows how countries over the last two centuries have experienced improved life expectancies and increased incomes per capita. Dynamic graphical representation of this trend reveals how improved life expectancies tend to predate increases in wealth. Malthus' "iron law of wages" and diminishing returns are explained. Questions about why the industrial revolution occurred in England at the time that it did are then posed. Professor Rae then shows the importance of the "world demographic transition" to economic history and contemporary economics. All countries tend to follow similar demographic patterns over the course of their economic development. Countries tend to have high birth and death rates in Phase I, falling death rate and high birth rate in Phase II, falling birth rate to meet the death rate in Phase III, and low birth and death rates in Phase IV. These demographic patterns are associated with different levels of capital and labor. While all countries follow this demographic transition, they do so at different times, and world trade is a way of "arbitraging" between different stages in the world demographic transition. 00:00 - Chapter 1.

Global Problems of Population Growth (MCDB 150) In many regions, the central cultural idea is that of a lineage, a family and its line of male ancestors and descendants. The prime duty in these cultures is to keep the lineage going. Religion is small scale with the ancestors performing many of the functions of gods. Denser populations and larger political entities lead to large-scale religion where conformity is stressed and cultural rules are codified in a book and not subject to discussion with the ancestors. In pre-modern Sub-Saharan Africa, land was not limiting, so a maximum number of children was desired. Neither monogamy nor chastity were valued as much as fertility. Families were not nuclear; husbands and wives did not engage in many activities together; children were often raised by other members of the village and women had the responsibility for economic support of the children. In many areas of Sub-Saharan Africa, farming is the work of women. Women often prefer men with resources which leads to polygamy. Women in polygamous relationships form support groups for each other and men enjoy the fruits of several women's labor and children. In temperate regions, the land eventually fills up and the dangers of overpopulation come to the fore. Peasants are miserably poor. Massive epidemics (the Black Death, 1347 and onward) and wars (the Catholic-Protestant wars, 1562-1648) can kill a third of the population. 00:00 - Chapter 1.

Bilderberg: Malthus on steroids - Daniel Estulin

Просмотр

Bilderberg sleuth and best-selling author Estulin provides a photo review of some Bilderbergers (et al), past and present, with comment on the 'Muslim threat' (nonsense, a Big Lie), the UN (under the control of the BBs & the world's self-appointed elite), Noam Chomsky (left gatekeeper), Putin (wants what's Russia's for Russia), depleted uranium (one of the [BB's] ways of getting rid of populations). Peak Oil is Malthus's wet dream. Capitalism's 1st Shill was Parson Malthus. The photo of the Three Monkeys criminals photo ('Hear No Evil, See No Evil, Speak No Evil') Sec. of State Madeleine Albright, Sec. of Defense William Cohen and Bilderberg wonderboy Bill Clinton is illustrative of their contempt.

Ted the Terrible - Malthusian Ted Turner - Anthony J Hilder

Просмотр

Ted Turner, Prince Philip, Jaques Cousteau, Thomas Malthus want to reduce the population of the planet in their time because we are using too much "stuff" as Ted Turner puts it. Look at the Georgia Guidestones commandment for us written in stone. Saving The Earth is far more important than saving the lives of the Useless Eaters living on it. If there were less people on the Earth there would be more resources for the rest of us .... who are more important. Read between the lines here. Some people believe this and would carry out the Final "Solution" to the Population Problem, Pollution Problem, and Scarce Resources Problem. When there are a lot less people....there are more resources to go around and less pollution! This is their thinking.
