Again, those are just assumptions you make without further understanding of a great number of things.

If you looked at US infrastructure and based the population we should have on how a developing nations population works, then you'd come up with a number like 750 million to a billion people... because 6 to 10 people live in a house, right? FYI, average US household is 2.5 people.

Simply put you cannot make any of your assumptions without more knowledge.





> You can't do any assumptions because you just can't, okay??

Correct, show your homework, as the teacher says.

Or I should say, it's hypocritical in an article about population numbers being fake to generate your own fake set of numbers and say it's better.


Especially when they're based on eyeballing it on Google Maps

Who would you better believe more - your favourite government or your own lying eyes?
