The population growth trends are very interesting, but I do not understand why they are breeding so much in Africa. Is life there not hard enough without having so many more mouths to feed and people to take care of?

Ms Nyero view is typical for someone in her circumstances, and perfectly rational. Her family are poor and rural. Her husband is a small farmer, one of the most precarious jobs in the world. She works for five hours a day selling millet snacks by the side of the road. Having lots of children is an investment that pays off quickly. From a young age, her brood can help in the fields, gather wood, fetch water and do all kinds of odd jobs to eke out the family budget. A local proverb sums it up: A child comes with two hands and only one mouth.

Having a large family is also an insurance policy. Some may die, others may turn out to be feckless. It is better to have many children, because you cannot tell if you will need them or not,says Ms Nyero. In the absence of a public safety-net, children will take care of you in old age.

This might be one of the few people with an average IQ on this board. I haven't seen a well written response to any thread in ages.

White people used exactly the same logic until relatively recently. It's only our complete and total alienation from the source of our food that gives us the luxury of pretending we don't understand it.

You're giving me too much credit I just copy pasted

Possibly it's well-written because it's an excerpt from an article published in a middlebrow political economy magazine?

OP you are retarded. While African countries may be shit compared to the rest of the world, their economies are still rapidly growing in the more stable areas. Thats why the population is also growing, because more people can afford food and medicine.

This is exactly right. Just a few generations ago, whites were having 12 kids per family. Most of these children ended up being nothing more than farm laborers, or they would die at a young age. A few of them would go on to accomplish something. The reason why China and India have massive populations is because their societies are extremely old and very agrarian. Farmers always have lots of kids, and there are tons of farmers in Africa.

I don't care if it's copy pasted. Most faggots on r9k would spout some random bullshit about how africans are breeding fast on purpose in order to wipe out the white race. And then they'll conveniently ignore the fact that white people were breeding like this less than a century ago. What's sad is that a copy pasted post is still so much better than the original thoughts of anyone else here.

1. Life isn't always that hard in Africa. There are very rich people there. Your view of Africa is skewed by the poor rural Africans, so you don't see the middle class/wealthy Africans in the city
2. When you're really poor, you have less to do, so you fuck. It's the same in America. Go to a trailer park or a ghetto and you'll see a ton of kids
3. Kids grow up and take care of you

>Little Tyrone won't eat today. He's starving. You won't let him die will you? Sponsor a child today for only $10 a month.

They don't have to feed their own kids so they breed like rats.

It's easy to shit out kids when you don't have to deal with them.
