> if you only have one genius per million people, you want more millions so you can get more geniuses. It takes more than the genius to exist, they have to be in an environment where they can thrive for there to doing anything beneficial. Also, there can also be evil genius people too, who seek only personal gratification at the expense of everyone else. > as population levels off and starts to fall, technological advance will stagnate and stall out completely. Citation needed. There is no reason to think this would be the case. |

You may need it, but some truths exist in a place where they aren't studyable by academia, so you're just shit out of luck.
If population needs to go up for tech advancement, and it stops going up so too will tech advancement. By the time someone can submit a paper to Nature, it will be too far gone. Guess you're screwed. Guess you need to be able to think even before some sociologist bothers to apply for grant money.
