without their technology, global delivery systems and main services its not going to be 65 million people it will be a fraction of this.

without all that lovely cheap food being imported from the other side of the world we cannot even hope to feed 65 million people, given the acreage available in this country(which becomes less and less each year) we can only feed 25% of the current population, maybe 16-20 million at the very most. the only reason we can feed so many now is that we are taking the surplus from other less well of countries in exchange for cold hard cash.
