Ever flown over the USA? Or other parts of the world? There's so much un-used space. For some reason we've adapted to congregating lots of people into very small areas.

If we continue to subsidize farmers, ranchers, clean energy, international trade, etc., there's more than enough resources for everyone. On a side note, one of the striking things I learned traveling to China a number of times, is that because of their population issues they basically will eat ANYTHING that's edible and provides sustenance.

We're kinda spoiled rotten here in the US and in Europe. But if we had to we'd adapt just like the far east has.
