Ted, my point was to reply in somewhat of a jesting manner that MAYBE the world MIGHT be a better place IF there weren't quite as many people on it as the now 7 billion people currently inhabiting it. A figure which is now twice what it was just a scant 50 years ago.
AND, my point was, and once again offered up in a pointedly humorous manner(kinda like how the late great Mr. Samuel Langhorne Clemens, aka Mark Twain, might have appreciated) that while there may NOT have been any CHANGE in the ratio or percentage, past to present, of people who refuse to use their freakin' brains in the world as compared to the total population, but that just the sheer INCREASE in the number of people on this planet nowadays MEANS that there is probably now TWICE the number of dunderheads who refuse to use their freakin' brains as there was in 1960 running around among us!!!
And thus, it might follow that THIS might be the very reason why many people think that this LATEST generation has more dunderheads in it than did the PREVIOUS one!
(...get it NOW???...NO?!...in THAT case, the point REALLY IS, I'm FUNNIN' with ya, THAT'S all!!!)
