CBS’s “60 Minutes” welcomed the new year with a doomsday message from Paul Ehrlich, a well known eugenicist who has called for population control due to ‘limited resources’ on planet earth.
Paul Ehrlich has been virtually wrong about everything over the last 6 decades.

Ehrlich called for population control in the 60s in his book “The Population Bomb” because he believed widespread famines would kill off hundreds of millions of people.
“The next few decades will be the end of the kind of civilization we’re used to,” Ehrlich said.
“60 Minutes” gave Ehrlich a platform to spew more lies.
