This might have something to do with it........ 

 

The birthrate fell for nearly every group of women of reproductive age in the U.S. in 2017, reflecting a sharp drop that saw the fewest newborns since 1987, according to a new report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

There were 3,853,472 births in the U.S. in 2017 — "down 2 percent from 2016 and the lowest number in 30 years," the CDC said.

The general fertility rate sank to a record low of 60.2 births per 1,000 women between the ages of 15 and 44 — a 3 percent drop from 2016, the CDC said in its tally of provisional data for the year.

The results put the U.S. further away from a viable replacement rate – the standard for a generation being able to replicate its numbers.

"The rate has generally been below replacement since 1971," according to the report from CDC's National Center for Health Statistics.

A lot of truth to that.

I wish the fukken birth rate would fall to minus 1000. 

A few years ago we had like 260 million people, now we've got 330 million. 

A lot of them are from IMMIGRATION......mostly Hispanic. 

Ain't none of them gonna' be doctors or medical people that could help a family member. 

I say let the population drop like a rock as far as I'm concerned.
