The Population is it a Problem or a Gift!

There are many arguments about the population, is it a problem, or a gift!

Many people consider the population is a big problem, especially the overpopulation, since the increase of the population requires more services, such as health, school, housing, and transportation, as well, this is true to some extent; however, some economic scientists consider the population is a gift. 

Even though it requires more services; yet, they are the major resource, as well, also this means more goods consumed, which will be reflected in trading, production, and all kind of industries. As large the population as many jobs will be open. Let me explain: with the increase of the population more schools are needed, which means construction workers, construction materials, engineers, teachers, paper industry, computer industry, and transportation, etc.

Another example, the health system, more hospitals are needed, again construction workers, construction materials, engineers, doctors, nurses, labs, researchers, computers, cars, etc. That been said, at the end of the day, the market will boom. 

In my humble opinion, I consider the population is a big problem, if there is no good education system, while it is a gift if they have a good education system, with good planning. 

Why Education?

The education system in any country should be built to help this country with its needs, per its resources. Since, every country is unique and has its market, resources, and needs, they shall design a unique education system that is suitable for this specific country. 

Yet, the big problem caused by some planning especially in the third world countries, most likely governments are in control and they shape the people an away cause no troubles to them, by designing a poor education system and allow people to have certain education that doesn’t help the individual him/herself nor the society.  

With a good education system, people’s behavior changes and becomes better, which will be reflected in society, fewer crimes, fewer health issues, fewer drugs, etc. 

When people get a good education, their general mood changes, everything improves around them.  

Education will make a difference, and convert the population from a problem to a solution; the population is resources, for those who know how to use them.
