The US fertility rate has bounced up and down some, but has been essentially unchanged since 1975.
A factor that is seldom discussed is that of WHO is having these kids. There is an inverse relationship in our society between number of children and what is generally considered success.
IOW, we are presently seeing reverse Darwinian selection. Superior reproduction by those who are less fit.

Yeah, that's the key problem. Those that have many kids either want to live off the welfare system, do not have any sense of Western values or both.
