- Siegfriedson, on 05/11/2008, -0/+3The human overpopulation about which you hear so often is driven by dramatic increases in the numbers of populants in Latin America, Africa, and especially Asia. Therefore, the people who are reproducing so drastically are the non-whites of the world. The reason this is happening is because the non-whites are benefitting extraordinarily from technology that was created by whites. As a result, the non-whites' (or "Third Worlders" as they are more commonly called) living standards have spiked. They are now living longer, having more children, and their infants have higher chances of growing into adulthood. They eat better, live cleaner, and have access to modern medicine (that has been imported from North America or Europe, of course).
