China did managed population growth, guess what happened, no one is happy. I doubt human can overcome their own nature to step ahead and regulate population effectively.

Isn't population growth close to zero for most industrialized countries?

What's your point?

I am not blaming other countries being irresponsible in controlling population. I was saying simply control population is not as easy a social policy to carry out.

That it isn't human nature that is the problem with population growth, otherwise we wouldn't have large parts of the free world with almost none and even slightly negative growth. The problem is cultural/historical and the problem of chinas one child policy was that it tried to combat the effect while the people still saw having a male heir as important.

I cannot seem to understand your statements.

Fact: we don't have an issue with positive population growth in most western nations. Fact 2: the populations of these western nations are human. Q.E.D.: explosive population growth is not human nature.

It is a cultural, educational, social security and rights issue. The Chinese failed because they tried to fight the result instead of the cause(s).
