      Exactly, we have an overpopulation issue, but it’s only an issue because of the economic system being unsustainable.

        It’s a relative overpopulation, Marx wrote about this in “Capital” (while also dunking harshly on Malthus, fun read). That relative overpopulation is purely related to capitalism and poverty, especially since capitalism became the global system.
