Too many children?

No. This from a post on the Earther blog, Is the World Really Overpopulated?:

We live in an era of incredible concentration of wealth: Globally, the bottom 50% of adults on the wealth scale now own less than 1% of the world’s total wealth, while the richest 10% own almost 90%. The top 1% alone owns 50%… Let’s start there when we start talking about the world’s serious problems, and not with the poorest people in the world having too many children.

The whole post is worth a careful read.
