&lt;p&gt;Overpopulation models all operate on the concept that humanity has 100% fertility in its breeding population, and there are no natural or un-natural controls of current population levels.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The globalists rulers, corporations, big banks, and mystery religion types who have welded themselves to the positions of political and religious power, have been assaulting humanity's fertility, and humanity itself.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;They do this attack on us, not just with the use of melamine and other food toxins, but with lethal GMO food, and flouride products in the water and dental products. &amp;nbsp;The toxins in food, water, and even plastic containers of bottled water are poisoning us directly, and in the case of some toxins, destroying male and female fertility.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The result of this one hundred year assault on human fertility and human survival has born bitter fruit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Currently Japan, Europe, The United States and other first world nations have sustained such large loss of fertility and premature death from cancer, various degenerative disease, and heart disease, that the native human populations in those countries are no longer replacing lost people with newborns.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The implosion of the first world populations have been masked for decades by the constant importation of immigrants from the third world, but even the third world populations are in the process of collapse, and implosion of numbers, due to the loss of human fertility and shortening of human lifespans. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If the human populations were small in number, this implosion would be noticable, but the large number of people are hiding this collapse in sheer numbers. &amp;nbsp;Unfortunately, many of the third world populations are becoming depleted in very young people, and an aging population needs these young and healthy people to sustain society. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If this crash occurs too fast, you could end up with a dead economy, and chaos, since this civilization needs a certain number of healthy young people to sustain from generation to generation.&lt;/p&gt;

These women can't afford formula and their babies need mother's milk, so the babies starve and become malnourished. It's an ongoing boycott and I hope to God it continues and grows.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Have you tried milk-based formulas with the milk protein further broken down? &amp;nbsp;Some milk-sensitive babies can tolerate these which would be much better than soy formula.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;chemist in 1961, and that amount works out to about one part in 7,299,270 parts of sample. &amp;nbsp;How is melamine&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;treated by the body? &amp;nbsp;Does it undergo changes into other compounds or is it eliminated by immune cells as an antigen?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is probably 137 parts per billion of any compound or element in every sample of matter on earth, but not in the earth at depth.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Re Melamine. The FDA. it is a corrupt, criminal outfit that has lost all credibility. You should not even be studying their take on melamine. It has no meaning. Much the same as their declaration that mercury in vaccines and amalgams &amp;nbsp;is safe, fluoride is needed etc..While you still have internet freedom, you must educate yourself, move out of the box, And beware the misinformation. The mainstream have their attack dogs such as Quack Busters, Wicked-pedia trying to discredit all beneficial alternatives. Then you have .doctors, ( apart from some heroic brave souls such as Doc Merc.) &amp;nbsp;dieticians, sports trainers, celebrity chefs and food writers spewing out garbage on what is healthy.&lt;/p&gt;

Hummmm!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Melamine? Yummmmm!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Doesn't FDA stand for Feral Ditherers Automated?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Or Future Death Assured?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Or maybe Funny Ducks Anonomous?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Instead of bulking with toxic fillers, I reckon there would be a whole lot of sense to add the missing essential sugars &amp;nbsp;(glyconutrients) that are in abundance in breast milk but sadly deficient (missing) in baby formulas! (or is that formulae?)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A bit too radical? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Or too costly?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well- what price do we put on the lives of our children?&lt;/p&gt;
