Remember back when overpopulation was the thing everyone was concerned about?

How about we stop trying to control population numbers, and let it sort itself out?

Is Elon Musk a scientist or researcher of any sort? An anthropologist, historian or biologist?

No. I mean, he is the Richest, and therefore the Smartest man currently alive, but this seems out of his wheelhouse.

Bloomberg should quit kissing ass on rich guys. It's not a good look for them. Undermines their credibility in other reporting.

So people having opinions should be switched off?
Oh, no! Where did you get that? I'm heartily in favor of opinions, I have many, not all of them generally acceptable. Perhaps the following opinions will inform you.

Bloomberg is giving a huge amount of credence to a very unlearned, off-the-cuff opinion, apparently just because Musk has money. Money does not equal smarts. Money does not equal worth printing. Bloomberg made a mistake publicizing this Musk opinion. "Freedom of speech", which I gladly admit that Bloomberg is exercising, does not mean "freedom from critique" or even "freedom from consequences". Bloomberg kissing ass on big money makes a lot of their other reporting suspect.

He does very clearly have power, influence and all that goes with that. That's why they cover him.
60 million Italians, ten times more than people in Finland.

If the Finns don't worry, the Italians don't have to worry either
