Often times, international statistics are seen as putting the number of Indonesian population as 240 million something. The current figure is estimated to be between 235 to 243 million people. However, Indonesian government officials (such as when they are quoted by the media), always choose to put the number of Indonesian population at 220 million something. Census inaccuracy is definitely out of question, since the gap between 22,000,000 and 240,000,000 is definitely a large one. So, why is there such a large gap? Which one of those two is closer to the truth?

At a meeting of urban and rural planners today, it was projected that the populations of the United States will reach 1 billion people in the year 2100. Thankfully, I will not be around to witness this.This was discussed in order to influence future development of land and infrastructure to accommodate the extra hundreds of millions. There are also some planners who are skeptical of this projection due to declining birth rates which result in declining immigration.Is there something that we can do about this? And I don't mean throwing up virtual fences to keep the Mexicans out. Is there something we can do about the stupid people already in this country continuing to breed? Darwinism still hasn't weeded most of them out of the gene pool yet, which may result in this:
