"To which you came out with the statement - "Easier said than done... especially now with a human population that exceeds the sustainable carrying capacity of the planet.

First let us take your view that to move the people was "easier said than done". Well that is rather idiotic as that is exactly what did happen - IT WAS DONE."

So the MILLIONS of people who starved to death IN IRELAND did so because they refused to go???? Ships lay empty in the harbors waiting for them??? Give me a break.

And just where were they supposed to go??? America and Canada had problems absorbing the number of Irish that did make it to their shores. And ignores the numbers of would be immigrants that were lost at sea in the infamous coffin ships.

Pardon me, but it is your assumptions that I am finding idiotic.
