Subject: M-INTRO: Too Many People


I am also currently enrolled in a Marxism Economics class.  Earlier 
submissions debated about whether Capitalism or the increasing human 
population is most to blame for the destruction of our environment.  
What would Marx have to say about it?  Did Marx ever discuss 
over-population? 

As an aside, I thought that the more developed countries produce much 
more pollution and do more damage the environment than many countries 
that have double their population.  Isn't the environmental damage more 
related to Capitalism and our standard of living?
