I suppose you could selectively kill people, based on some sort of
testing, or maybe ethnic origin to reduce the impact, but I can hardly
see that as a way to resolve problems.

I was thinking, tackle the problem at source, i.e. have less kids.

Which was covered, it does nothing to provide for the rest of the
