Big country, big problems. At least they're trying to do something about it rather than just throwing up their arms and accepting that their people will have to suffer. Thank God they controlled their population growth, and through a procreation policy rather than through a famine.

@thetaomega7816 If you are referring to the Great Leap Forward and the famine that was at least in-part a result of those policies, that predated the one-child policy by two decades. Also, China has a history of breeding up to the limit of its food production so that even when it was the most advanced country in the world (which covers most of its history) it was perpetually plagued by famine. This time around, they've taken a more thoughtful approach, to the benefit of the world, and particularly to the benefit of the Chinese people.
