9/20/16 Population

Today in Mr. Schicks class we talked about the population. In 2050 it is estimated that there will be 10 billion people on the earth. We don't have enough food to feed the amount of people here now. Thousands of people suffer with starvation everyday. How are we supposed to have enough for 10 billion people? There won't be. Same thing with jobs. There is many people in this day that are unemployed and are living in poverty. This is only going to get worse as the population increases. Many jobs in America hire workers from other countries to work for their companies because they don't have to pay them as much. For example, here in the U.S there is a minimum wage of roughly $8. If you hire someone from india you may only have to pay them $4. We also learned that people who live in China are significantly smarter then those in the U.S. In America we have about 61 babies per 7 minutes. In India you have about 315 babies being born every 7 minutes. Moe babies are being born then people dying.
