Population constraints
Population pyramids for Germany in 1956, 2006, and 2050 (pop in 100.000)Horizontal bars are proportional to number of men (blue) and women (red). Roughly constant total fertility rate of 1·4, yearly net migration of 100 000 and life expectancy in 2050 reaching 83·5 years for men and 88·0 years for women.

The Malthus’ Nightmare (2nd edit 1803)“A man who is born into a world already possessed, if he cannot get
subsistence from his parents on whom he has just demand, and if the society do not want his labour, has no claim of right to the smallest portion of food, and, in fact, has no business to be where he is. At nature’s mighty feast there is no vacant cover for him. She tells him to be gone, and will quickly execute her own orders, if he do not work upon the compassion of some of her guests. If these guests get up and make room for him, other intruders immediately appear demanding the same favour. The report of a provision for all that come fills the hall with numerous claimants. The order and harmony of the feast is disturbed, the plenty that before reigned is changed into scarcity ; and the happiness of the guests is destroyed by the spectacle of misery and dependence in every part of the hall, and by the clamorous importunity of those who are justly enraged at not finding the provision which they had been taught to expect. The guests learnt too late their error, in counteracting those strict orders to all intruders, issued by the great mistress of the feast, who, wishing that all her guests should have plenty, and knowing that she could not provide for unlimited numbers, humanely refused to admit fresh comers when her table was already full”
