Overpopulation, as I See It.

Overpopulation is the idea of population exceeding its resources. In the case of economics it would be the productivity of the market forces.

The Phillipines have seen more of a push towards freer markets and direct local reinvestment in their local capital. This added on to a sensible taxation system will enable higher per capita incomes and much less poverty. In recent years their GDP has risen, so there is much hope for less poverty and a viable economy, that is not at all dictated by population.

I sternly believe that overpopulation is the cause of poverty. In the Philippines, the country where I grew up in, the population of the poor people outnumbers the rich and the working class. Filipinos has this old belief that the more children they have, the more number of people will work to take them out for poverty. Well I say that this notion is outrageous! Children are not there to make your life better, it is actually the other way around. It is parents who should work hard to prepare and provide for the coming of their child so that they can support the child's needs and provide him/her with a bright future.But how could parents who can barely provide for themselves be able to support a child and send him/her to college? If they can't support one how on earth could they support a dozen children? And so the vicious cycle of poverty occurs and poverty is never solved.I do not feel pity for families who are very large in number and are suffering. Having a family is a vocation..

Up to now we cannot make solution out of this things, even in some other country, even we considered very nice country.. there are criminals... there in injustice.. there is not so good about their country and people.. the only good thing we can do here is to look for the good thing about one country.. and not the bad side of it..
