world domination? did that already happen they are everywhere around the world now.

The thing is, they pulled this off ten years too late. Ten full years.

By now, the middle class is large enough to matter in terms of income; and it's relatively expensive to raise and educate two children at once - especially without the full support of an extended family.

Chinese economy must be really shitty there right now

As awful as that policy was it did help stop the rapidly increasing Chinese population. I kind of fear what will happen without this, China and India already have more than 36% of the worlds population, and at the rate the world's pop is increasing the human race will end up running out of resources as the Earth cannot support such a large population resource wise.

Wohoo! Great news .

Good news, was such an unfortunate policy.

That's a good news. That'll increase the number of atheists in the world.

indeed, the effects of overpopulation could easily turn earth into a hellhole of suffering and destruction if the trends aren't reversed

I fear most of the larger land mammals are already beyond help - we know we will need more space and then they'll be gone

I'm really worried for the future, the world population is already growing too fast, if it gets even faster due to chinese people now not beeing forced to only have one child then we have to act promptly for the gas emissions and food problems...
