A Project for a New Global Future

So the official death toll from the earthquake in Haiti is now around 170,000 and is expected to reach 200,000. This is a big improvement from the estimate in our previous post and will set the growth of the population back by a few years at least.

There is also a lot of talk about decentralizing the population of the country during the rebuilding process by moving people out to smaller villages and cities throughout the island. This of course is good, but much more needs to be done to reduce the population in order for there to ever be hope for the country.

Right now all sorts of ships and planes are bringing food and medicine to the country non stop. Why not bring condoms and birth control and a little bit of education to go along with it?

In the meantime, there is still hope for another big earthquake. A nearby fault which is thought to have a lot of pressure built on it barely moved during the 7.0 quake that hit the island.

The earthquake in Haiti may seem like great news to all of us who wish for a good reduction in population. Especially for a country as densely populated and impoverished as Haiti.

Haiti is a great example of what happens when population grows unchecked. Resources are extremely scarce and almost every single tree in the entire country has been cut down.

The population continues to grow and grow because there is no education, no birth control, no family planning, and simply not quite enough disease and disaster to keep things in check.

For example:  The Red Cross estimates that as many as 50,000 are dead from the earthquake. But for a country that has a population closing in on 9 million there will be over 100,000 babies born this year.

Maybe they will be lucky enough to have a dozen more big quakes so that the good people of Haiti can start to live well again.

Finally the California Medical Board came to it’s senses and served Octomom’s fertility specialist, Michael Kamrava, with an accusation of ‘gross negligence and repeated negligent acts’. Clearly he used poor judgment with the medical procedures (read the details here),  but the item that has all of us here at New Global Future saying “Finally!” is the accusation of gross negligence for failure to refer Octomom for a mental health evaluation.

Octomom Nadya Suleman is the most obvious “celebrity” in need of mental help we’ve ever seen due to her obsession with always wanting more children. Nadya Suleman returned to her doctor 3-4 months after EVERY delivery of a child for another round of egg retrieval and implantation eventually leading to the birth of the world’s longest surviving octuplets. She now has a total of 14 children.  If that’s not an addiction to pregnancy and children, then I don’t know what is. She seemed to have a  constant need for more and felt that what she had was never enough (she’s also been on public assistance for years and lived with her mother because she couldn’t afford to live on her own, but I won’t get into that).  Most women that have fertility problems are extremely grateful for each child they are able to have and don’t rush back to their doctor 3 months after their child is born saying “I need more!”. The fact that she did so and her doctor continued to oblige her without a second thought is disturbing to say the least. His defense that he was “only obliging his patient’s requests” is weak. If all doctors obliged every patient request without regard to ethics or patient safety, then this country could fall into chaos very quickly. We hope Dr. Kamrava will be a doctor no more once the medical board reviews the case and decides what disciplinary action to take.
