Does human overpopulation exist? If so, what can we do reduce the effects of it/slow it down or even stop it?

On a side note, do you agree or disagree with any of the following methods of slowing down human over population.

1) Laws limiting each family to only one child (Possible punishments: Fines, "excess" children being adopted by other families without the biological parents' consent)
2) Colonizing other planets (in the future)
3) The government assigning jobs so that more people produce necessities like food and work in manufacturing rather than other jobs like professional athletes, writers, film directors, actors, artists, etc.

I have seen no evidence of overpopulation... Can someone show me where this exists? Wait, are we all talking about Earth? Come on people, limit children? How many rights are you willing to give up because someone says "Global Warming" or "Overpoplulation"?
The government assigning jobs? You know, we don't have to run to good Uncle Sam everytime we need something. In fact, I believe firmly that it is most American to fix any problems (Mind, I'm not saying overpopulation is a problem) on your own, and to reject government programs. (An unrelated note: It would by quite American to have a revolution every twenty years. T. Jefferson said something like that)
If overpopulation is a real problem, show me. That wasn't meant at all as rude as it sounds.
Yeah and it destroys the fuckin planet to feed your greedy nation!!

Mine too though :(
