No, they have. I don't know who you're talking about, I'm talking about the sustainable population doomsayers.
They haven't been wrong, they turned out to be right for everyone. People who didn't live through the boom of the 1950s can't imagine what it's like to live in a world where things improve for everyone every year.
Japan didn't start growing like it did before 1980 again, everyone else stopped too.
China has been basically the only driver of world economic growth for the last 40 years. Which is kind of astonishing considering they are communists.
