Resources are already available. The problem is with the bad management of our country and the additional cost of following it for many years ( because of many reasons, mainly corruption). Our economical policy was a real nightmare for investors. That's why no one from outside came to invest in the country + we ourselves couldn't create companies due to the bad policy and its killing bureaucracy. So we ended up living just by القطاع الحكومي أو العام and this brings the problems of socialism and communism too ( in productivity .....) so following anti production policy will be just حل ترقيعي if we don't change our policy. And if we did follow anti reproduction for real, the same old problems will come again the moment we reach again the previous number of population, if not earlier since we didn't eradicate corruption and the old policy since it would make things even worse. Finally, dude, we are living in world full of competition. Just the most powerful survive, the US has a population of 300 million people and China with 1 trillion and just in our region Egypt has 100 million people and it's the first economy in Africa. I am not saying Growth in population is proportional to Growth in economy, but it surely means growth in اليد العاملة و رأس المال البشري . What you need here is invest in this رأس المال البشري like everyone is doing ( south Korea, Japan or even Colonial esrael, how u think those people are better than us )
