Do you think this line of thinking is different than limiting cigarettes, drugs, alcohol, and unhealthy food to reduce health care costs and socioeconomic issues?

Wouldn't that incentivization lead to sterilization on class lines pretty much 100% of the time?

Yes. It’s not pretty or desirable but it’s 100% aligned with reality.

Well, not really because death and declining health are inevitable. But taken in terms of turning otherwise healthy bodies into diseased bodies then yes it’s a similar line of reasoning.

Do you have a top three favorite operas?

You ever thought, "Man, **** the planet!"? Earth ain't special.

I dont actually, havent had the pleasure of exploring it. I used to work with an amateur singer, and I went to see his performance at his church, which is what turned me onto it. I just think it sounds beautiful.

I’ve considered that but earth actually does appear to be special based on everything we’ve observed in the universe.

That translates to not maintaining the same rate of population increase as opposed to a declining population. We good for at least a few generations, trust me.

Oh wow our ignorance makes our planet look special. Praise jesus.

I thought we've actually found several planets in other galaxies that are just like Earth. Could be wrong.

That’s true.

Mother Nature is the most hideous dictator of all time. If you burn through your renewables faster than they can replenish she forces you to eat yourself.
