Some people believe that the people in power are planning depopulation on a mass global scale. They will point out the many methods that are currently in use such as: war, deadly drugs, viruses such as AIDS, abortion, euthanasia and all the additives and chemicals put in our food and water.

People claim that the current population of roughly 7 billion people on the planet is too much and that the levels should be closer to 500 million. Some people will also point out the mysterious Georgia Guidestones which oddly enough say, "Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature".
