Overpopulation

I think the desire for more children in under developed countries is more culture then anything. My family is from Egypt and the man is supposed to get a job and support his family and the women is expected to get married as soon as possible and have kids. The nicest places in Egypt look like they came straight outta Compton. As you pass the city it looks worse and worse. Homes in the country side usually are little huts or half torn down buildings they are trying to live in. In America we adopted the single lifestyle at a young age so we have less kids.
Most people do not want to get married until their late 20's. To help keep population down we should have the one family one child law in the countries that are over populated to encourage them to have less children. When it comes to the earths resources everybody is pushing it off and letting the people who it really affect to deal with it. We should filter out the bad and stop polluting our environment. It will probably be years before people want to change how we do everything. People are now just starting to buy hybrid or gas efficient cars. When they first came out nobody wanted to change what they were driving until gas prices skyrocketed.
