Synopsis
Excerpt from The Population Question According to T. R. Malthus and J. S. Mill: Giving the Malthusian Theory of Over-Population
Malthus combated the position of those writers in whose eyes the perfectibility of men and of political institutions was without limits, and reduced to a very low figure the influence of bad governments he defended the rights of property, and combated the different socialistic theories which were at that day in the air: he Showed, also, that human societies had at all times had only two obstacles to their increase, namely, Vice and Misery: and he pointed to the too rapid increase of population in proportion to subsistence, as being the prin cipal cause of these obstacles.
