Propaganda has permeated the lives of the American public to come to the realization that there is an overpopulation problem in the world. The public has seen large numbers of the world’s population suffering from serious hunger, but only 2% suffer from serious hunger. The fact is that food production around the world has increased faster than that of the population, with some of the biggest increases coming in the poorest countries on earth. In 1983, rice production in India had increase 3 and half times than that of the production in 1950. The fact is that population increase during that same time was just over one and half times. At the current rate of growth the population will reach it capacity in more than 125 years according the estimates made by Revelle and almost 200 years according to the estimates made by Clark. Kasun states that the limits are far beyond present uses of natural resources and as new knowledge is being developed the amount use of these natural resources is being reduced. (Kasun,
