Paul Ehrlich, Call Your Service


Britain is facing uncontrolled mass immigration. The solution? Tell Englishmen to stop breeding.

There's even a perfect example of the inevitable "but" that causes a sentence to reverse itself in mid stride (emphasis added):
No one is in favour of governments dictating family size but we need to act quickly to prevent it.
Translation: We are in favour of government dictating family size, so do what we say "voluntarily" or else.

So rarely does one see 1970s "affluence is a disease" delusions converge so neatly with the instincts of the totalitarian busybody.

  2. It would seem that telling Englishmen and women to stop breeding is as pointless as telling them to start drinking too much or eating too many sweets. They're already not breeding enough -- if they were the country wouldn't have an immigration problem.

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.
