That's interesting (to me).  When I went through school (high school in 
mid sixties), that was a topic that was at least mentioned (and maybe 
more--that was a long time ago).  There were many (outside of school), 
who denied that.

I don't keep up with current events all the time, which prompts this 
wondering--did Malthuse just get forgotten, or was there a conscious 
effort to ignore or suppress his thoughts, or what?  

Anyway, at the time, thoughts of Malthuse led some to thoughts of 
limited family size and so forth.  If you grew up since then, what was 
the attitude in public (i.e., US public) schools about population 
growth and so forth?
