Immigration is not going to stop our population decline.

In 2019 - before COVID started and during a full employment economy - the fertility rate for foreign born women living in the USA dropped to 2.02.

That is below the replacement rate, for foreign born women, which has never happened before.

Face the reality...

Kids are really expensive, they consume all your time, and more often than not, they are ungrateful or indifferent for the sacrifices made by their parents.

American couples are not going to stop having children, but they will absolutely stop having large families.

And they’re being told having children is evil, so have at most one.

An unprecedented number of women are not having kids at ALL, 20% hitting 45 without kids, while historical rates are 10%. Part of this is intentionally, but part of it is “put off kids, career first, try to find a husband at 35 and never has kids ...”
