Platinum, I see where you are coming from a tad, but that is pretty ****ed up man. I don't think population control should be in the means of a horrible disease killing thousands of people in a horrific way.
Overpopulation is and will become a bigger problem, but it can be targeted by people in a way that makes sense. Such as chinas tax laws against 2 or more children. That seriously helped them out a lot.
Back on topic, I love the conversations in school we have been having. Whether it is in a class, and teacher initiated, or if its just with friends. We all seem to have something productive to bring to the table and we can run through the different scenarios of what could happen without insulting each other. Seriously. My teachers are concerned, my friends are concerned, my parents are concerned, my other family members are concerned, obama is concerned, the government is concerned, wolf blitzer is concerned, the FDA is concerned... and yet I have a couple kids on an internet forum based off of a ripoff zelda game telling me that I am paranoid and an idiot for considering the possibilities of what this disease could turn out to be.
