Wow. Been living with millions close by for too long, unit. Get outside. There’s an interesting statistic I read recently that I found quite interesting. Mathematically, every person on earth, if we do number 8 billion, could live in Alaska, and each have an acre of land. Hmm. Think about it.

Most of Alaska is wasteland unfit for farming. They would chop down all their trees in one season to keep warm. Then they would freeze or starve to death or die in raids against other people.
Much of the Earth is barren. Water is a precious resource which will be fought over. Evidence of heavy fighting is seen in the Oak Groves of old California. Why? Acorns. Protein. Competition for scarce resources.
But as far as your approach: You could fit every human on Earth in Dallas. Just stack 'em like firewood. Your point didn't go over my head, it's just a silly turd I stepped over.

"The [Irish potato] famine disproportionately affected the rural poor who relied heavily on potatoes for their diet. The lack of a diverse diet and the absence of effective relief measures contributed to the high mortality rate. The British government's laissez-faire policies, continued exportation of food, insufficient relief, and rigid regulations exacerbated the situation.
While the British government did take some steps to alleviate the crisis, such as importing corn and setting up soup kitchens and public work programs, these measures were not enough to prevent the widespread suffering and death."

Wow. That is interesting. 🤔

The point, going over your head. All the humans on earth, would in Alaska, with an acre of land. Now do you get it? We amount to a dot, on earth.

I didn’t think it was silly at all. I got his point immediately.
Oh, ok. Explain it to me then.
