Of course Malthus has always been proven wrong.

In the long run, so far.  In the short run think Irish Potato Famine.

If sanity be culturally normative, then by the norms of this culture I claim insanity.

Silly me, of course Malthus was right in Ireland as well.  After all, the population did decline so as not to exceed the available food supply.  It was the fault of the Irish for not seeing the blight coming.

So sorry.
