Before the car there were three to four people per horse

There are currently about 140 people per horse.

So if you want to cheer on taking the world population from 8.6 billion to about 188 million, treating us better, I can't say I'm a big fan.

When did I say that?

You hope for a similar outcome for ourselves.

The outcome for the horses is less than ideal. The population was reduced by 33x. Sure they're treated better now as their leisure animals or sport animals. But I do not wish for their outcome on humanity.

Go and look up the meaning of “though”, and parentheses.

I was referring to quality of living.
