"Nobody seems to talk of the problem of global overpopulation." EB
Overpopulation has become huge.
I have talked mostly about human labour obsolescence, and global income convergence, different but related topics, all processes of increased globalization.
These are not the topics that liberals like DK want to talk about.
In fact, these topics, (along with several other biggies I can name, just for good measure,) themselves queer the whole global liberalism ideology.
They want to talk about wealth divergence, between the middle class, mostly in the white West really, and the .1% super wealthy, a small but global elite group increasingly mostly of color.
So they really want to talk apples and oranges, from the get go, re domestic economy versus global economy comparisons.
That diverts attention from the liberal responsibility for these processes mentioned above.
Don't forget, capitalism is a very very very liberal thing.
