7 BILLION!

It's mostly that people want to live longer and longer. They don't want to die and will do a lot to prevent that. The amount of people born a day is far larger than the people who have died that day.

If you compare modern families to families from the 30s-70s, you will see that the amount of children has decreased enormously. It is more the fact that people don't die at 60 or 70 anymore, but these days people can easily get 80-90 years old and sometimes reach an age of far over 90.

We are all to blame, the economy, the wealth, everything basically. There is so much medication these days, elderly people can be kept alive for ages.
