I didn’t get that, how did the birthrate come in?

I was talking pure population numbers, like 132 million in 1940 203 million in 1970, and even in 1980 when Reagan took office it was 227 and we were losing over 2,000 dead troops a year in peacetime.

Today we exceed 335 million people and we can’t find the men.

The population was healthier back then and we were going through a baby boom. Yes. We have over 300 million people today. But how many millions are in that 18-25 age group? Plus they all play fortnite (video games) so they are not as fit as they were 20, 40 or 60 years ago.
