The government should control the population because we live on a small ECUMENE & as population increases the space will reduce and the resources will deplete due to the large number of people having to use them.This is true in India because farmers have to work extra hard to produce the main crop, rice, for the growing population.As the population grows,the space to live will be reduced forcing people to have to live in slums or unhygienic areas.We see this in Soylent Green too,OVERPOPULATION resulted in a big separation between classes creating social tension for countries that give birth to alot of kids,increasing their population.With families having & increasing number of children,they will not have much money to support all of their children well.Education and healthcare costs will be too expensive for the family to afford for all their children,& not paying for healthcare is fatal.When the country is so overpopulated,& families are running out of hygienic areas to live,not paying for health care leads to INFANT MORTALITY RATES,because little kids would not have access to life saving resources.If the parent does pay for healthcare then probably they can't pay for the education,this is a problem.If a child isn't being educated there is no way that the child can get a job and help aid the economy & create an income so the childs life is useless and ruined.If the parents choose to have more children than they can afford they will unintentionally kill or ruin the Childs life.We know that the government campaigning is getting results also because the article states “According to a World Bank study,the average number of children per woman in the developing world declined by 2.5 children between 1960,when many of the campaigns began in earnest,and 1990,and it has continued to decline.” An average of 2 children per family is a good number to have,the family is a considerable size and it’s is not too difficult to support both children.
