I never said that.   I did say that there is no known, or anticipated
technological advance that will make Mars habitable sufficent to support
more than a few people at any one time.   Perhaps you
have been reading too much Science Fiction?

There are 140 million babies born each year.   What would it take to
transport that many people each year to another planet, and how long
would it take?  And how much would it cost?   And without the governments
that you lambast, who would pay for it?

If he had been reading enough SF, he would have learned long ago that
moving lots of people to anywhere else is impractical. Moving seed

If you read the Bobiverse books, there will be a massive world wild
nuclear war on Earth in the 22nd century.  The resulting nuclear winter
will kill off 99.999% of the people on Earth as the glaciation moves to
the equator.

 The Bobiverse books are mildly amusing fiction with tremendously
shitty science.

Um, please detail the bad science according to you.  For instance, are you talking about Nuclear Weapons, Nuclear Winter, 3D Printers, or something else ?
