Considering Bill Gate's previous on-record comment about how improved vaccination programs could _reduce_ population, I wouldn't be surprised if there'll be some 'accidental consequences' of this system. How much fertility reduction do you get if everyone sitting on a 'microwave toilet' has their testicles 'slightly' cooked?

Only partly joking. Gates has signed on with the Bilderbergers, and their clearly stated objectives are to radically reduce world population by any means and as soon as possible. Figures in the range 500 million to 900 million (survivors) frequently pop up in Bilderberger-related stories.

One thing to watch would be the financial estimates. Keeping technology like that working in remote/undeveloped locations won't be cheap. If the Gates Foundation is going to foot the bill for operational servicing of the 'microwave toilets' on a large scale, then...

Have any evidence to support this Alex Jones drivel?

Bill Gates has done more for the poor than all the conspiracy theorists in the world combined.

"The world today has 6.8 billion people... that's headed up to about 9 billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent." -- Bill Gates (in public speech with published video) I saw the video, the quote is correct. Don't have link handy, find it yourself. Did he mis-speak? Maybe. He never corrected it, despite it going viral.

I've seen the video and the context is clear. He's talking about reducing the population growth by 10-15%. Why is this bad? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WQtRI7A064

I've heard Alex Jones. I don't see any evidence that the Bilderberger meetings are discussing mass murder.

The announcement alludes to a continuous waste stream being important. I don't think they are talking about a "per hole" solution.
