What would a rational policy for depopulating the planet look like, and what type of government could impose it?

Brilliant though naive citizens such as Jane, Christy and many other believe that the system we have is a good one, ie the constitution, if only we can get it to work as it’s supposed to.

I think we past the point of no return. The system has been so corrupted and perverted it can no longer represent the commonweal - the people. America has experience as slow motion coup d’etat of sorts by corporate interests. We live in a fascist state which masquerades as a democracy.

Many still try to use the levers of a democracy to run our society. But those levers are not there anymore. And the ones that remain are only pulled by “special interests”.

New strategies and tactics are in order as they pile up more victories and we lose every battle for freedom and human rights.

I have a more cynical view. Those at the upper reaches of power are looking for ways to depopulate the planet, manage it at a more workable level.

But imposing some sort of rational policy toward that goal is completely unacceptable. So they are all for war, and anything that leads to a die off population while concentrating wealth and more importantly power.

The ones who carry out these policies do it for greed, something which seems to be an easy sell especially since wealth IS the measure of success in this society.
