You continue to misunderstand that the "limits of sustainability" are
an artifact of bad governance, not an objective natural boundary.

I've always had this problem understanding things that aren't true.
What specific policies do you think we should enact to remove all
Earthly limits to human population growth?

That's an amusing strawman, but we weren't discussing "all Earthly
limits to population growth." We were discussing the issue of whether
or not earth, or the US, is currently overpopulated. Neither is, and
both are a very long way from getting there.

If you will go back to my previous posts you will see that "Earthly
limits to population growth" are exactly what I've been discussing.

No, you were saying that we are overpopulated. I am saying that we
are so far from being so that it's not worth worrying about.

I never said that. And you have never said why you think we're so far
from being overpopulated.
