28 July 1971
“I’m scared,” the lean, intense scientist (Paul Ehrlich) told an interviewer. “I have a teenage daughter whom I love very much.

I’m 37, and I’d like to live to be 67 in a reasonably pleasant world, not die in some kind of holocaust in the next decade.”

So not only was Ehrlich completely wrong about a holocaust before 1981, he was also completely wrong about how long he expected to live.
Did Ehrlich ever make one correct prediction?
Somebody should throw a net over this man and haul him away to the insane asylum.
Only the left would consider this man a ‘visionary’, or even a ‘thinker’.
