The most effective way of population control is education, curbing of religious influences and raising of living standards. Just look up "demographic change". In the 1880, German fertility rates were between 5.5 and 5. That's on par with modern day Niger and Mali, some of the most fertile nations in the world. As soon as the mortality rates of German children dropped and a social net was established, rates fell. And this has happened all over the world. Unless we get taken in by abrahamic fertility cults again, a healthier, better educated and equal society will stabilize the world's population at around 9 billion. And we can easily support them, if we work towards it. No need for pseudoeugenics or other population control mechanisms.
