We just learned that the U.S. birthrate fell for the sixth straight year in 2013 to an all-time low.
Why? And what needs to happen now?

Chesterton on birth control/population control:
In 1925 Chesterton wrote an introduction to Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol in which he said that The answer to anyone who talks about the surplus population is to ask him, whether he is part of the surplus population; or if not, how he knows he is not.

I did my part recently. I’m just tired now. I’ll try to push another one out. We’ll see how it goes.

Birth rates are even lower in Europe and Russia. It’s Obama’s fault? Maybe it’s all Putin’s fault. ;-)
To: gleeaikin
Historically, birthrates fall when people despair of the future.

"... with the proper breeding techniques and a ratio of say, ten females to each male, I would guess that they could then work their way back to the present Gross National Product within say, twenty years."

If i have a child then i become a slave to State and federal government as well as to the mother.
That is a hard decision to make.

True, but they also seem to fall naturally when a modern country achieves a high standard of living. Take away immigration and we have been at zero population growth for 30 years. This isn’t bad for the people necessarily, but multi-nationals, and agenda-driven politicians hate it.

Killing children in the womb does nothing increase the population. Or shaming those with more than 2 kids.

Did the birthrate go up during the Great Depression?
