Nothing makes me quite as sick or enraged as seeing a family of 5+ in front of me at the grocery store using food stamps to support their clan.  Population IS a major problem.  The religious pro-life maniacs and political correctness have protected the "right to have children" for far too long.  Anyone who cannot admit that population is at the root of climate change is not being honest with themselves.  I absolutely agree that we need to stop subsidising population growth.  In our society the key to all of the handouts and good deals is having children.  That is a serious problem.  We need to reverse this trend and implement a qualification system for having children.  I think people should need a license to have kids.  Seriously - we have to qualify for a license to show that we are responsible onough to drive a car, why not for having a kid?  The damage to the planet - and society - when people reproduce without restriction is a serious threat that must be dealt with.
