The only Malthusian I actually respect is Bill Gates, because he openly says he wants to stop third worlders from having children. Everyone else seems to just be using overpopulation as an excuse to attack Europeans or to make selfish personal choices.
I hold neo-Malthusian views myself but honestly does seem like a lot of the I don't want kids crowd just wants extended adolescence. To be fair and honest, a child born today in a first world nation may cost on average $40 a day and over 18 years that's not exactly chump change.
Having kids might end up being for the rich, or for third world shithole countries where they never had much money in the first place.
