Imagine I had a little dial I could move, and it would somehow magically change the population of an area. What would you think of me if I took the only remaining area in the world that still struggles to feed their population, and started cranking it up? At the same time imagine I took that same dial, and start sending it lower and lower in the richest and most bountiful places that could afford to support vastly larger populations?
What would you think of me?
