America’s colleges and universities deliver far less value at far greater cost. If America survives the social upheaval that is coming, then things will get better.
Demography is destiny. Our K-12 schools are a disaster, especially the ones in our largest cities. They are populated by mostly black and Hispanic students who are Ill-prepared academically for college. Many drop out of school.
The native population is expected to add an average of 1.3 million people per year, compared with 579,000 per year for the foreign-born population living in the United States.
The non-Hispanic White population is projected to shrink over coming decades, from 199 million in 2020 to 179 million people in 2060— even as the U.S. population continues to grow. Their decline is driven by falling birth rates and rising number of deaths over time as the non-Hispanic White population ages. In comparison, the White population, regardless of Hispanic origin, is projected to grow from 253 million to 275 million over the same period.
