A Perfect Binary System:
1st day - 2 recruits
2nd day - 2 recruits x 2 = 4 recruits
3rd day - 4 recruits x 2 = 8 recruits
4th day - 8 recruits x 2 = 16 recruits
5th day - 16 recruits x 2 = 32 recruits
6th day - 32 recruits x 2 = 64 recruits
.....
30th day = 1,073,741,824 recruits (Phil. population is only approx. 90 million)
.....
60th day = 1,152,921,504,606,850,000 !!! (how do you read that anyway?)
So this should give us an idea why a binary scheme, much less other schemes are never sustainable.
