Tesla CEO Elon Musk is obsessed with America’s falling birth rate. In 2019, he predicted that “the biggest problem the world will face in 20 years is population collapse.” Just last month, he told Fox News it’s the main thing that “keeps him up at night.” And according to an April 15 report in the Wall Street Journal, Musk is personally using in vitro fertilization (IVF) to sire what he has described as a “legion” of children — at least 14 so far, with four different women — “before the apocalypse.”
“Low birth rates will end civilization,” the billionaire warned last week on X (which he owns).
Musk’s preoccupation is so intense — and his sway with President Trump so strong — that the White House is now reportedly considering various right-wing “pronatalist” policies to incentivize and encourage more births: $5,000 lump-sum “baby bonuses” for every American mother after delivery; government-funded programs to educate women on their menstrual cycles so they can better understand when they are able to conceive; even a “National Medal of Motherhood” for women with at least six children.
"Sounds like a good idea to me," Trump said Tuesday when asked about the possibility of a federal baby bonus.
But do everyday Americans share Musk and Trump’s concern?
Not really, according to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll. The survey of 1,597 U.S. adults, which was conducted from April 25-28, shows that only 8% of them say they’re “very worried” — and just 32% say they’re worried at all — about the U.S. birthrate falling “significantly over the past 20 years."
In contrast, nearly six in 10 Americans (59%) say they’re “not very worried” (30%) or “not worried at all” (29%).

Elon Musk is worried about the survival of the White race in America and abroad. We all should. The White race is a global minority.
Demographics Is Destiny.
Well then someone must tell the all the illegal aliens to slow down, seems they breed like rabbits. I usually agree with Elon Musk on most things, but I think for now there are enough humans to go around. He supposedly has aspergers, maybe that has something to do with his fear.
Perhaps thats the case. But Elon's right.
Why bother becoming obsessed about something one cannot change on their own? It still takes at least two to Tango!
Some might even say ‘it takes a Village.’
Elon understands the issue...
‘every day Americans’ (IQ around 100) haven’t a clue and don’t care
Damn right. “Everyday Americans” are so friggin’ lazy they want illegal alien invaders to have babies for them.
He may be right, but the traffic around here is getting to be nuts. I don’t think we’ll have a human shortage for a long time. When and if we do, well then, it’s party time! Let’s make babies!
There is no such thing as a “white” or “black” race,
Among “Caucasians”, you have very dark skinned Tamils, brown Semites and north Indians, Iranians, Levantines and Greeks/southern Italians.
Among Africans you have multiple races: with the Bantu speaking west africans being genetically different from the Ethiopian,- Somali East Africans and both being utterly different genetically from the Khoi San peoples of Southern Africa.
In fact the Bantu are closer to us caucasians genetically than they are to Khoi San / Bushmen
Genetic studies, like those from the Human Genome Project, show that humans share 99.9% of their DNA, and the small variations don’t align neatly into traditional racial categories. Skin color, often used to define “whiteness,” is influenced by a tiny fraction of genes (e.g., MC1R) and varies continuously across populations due to environmental adaptations, not distinct racial boundaries.
Historically, “white” emerged as a category in the 17th-19th centuries, tied to European colonialism, slavery, and social hierarchies. It’s been fluid—groups like Italians or Irish weren’t always considered “white” in the U.S. until social assimilation shifted perceptions. Census data and legal definitions (e.g., the “one-drop rule”) further show race as a product of cultural and political choices, not objective science.
So, biologically? No clear “white race.” Socially? It exists as a construct with real impacts, but its boundaries are blurry and context-dependent.
Similarly biologically, there’s no “black race”—just continuous human variation.
Black history month should be abolished as it is to be included in American history
Yes, he’s correct. If you don’t have a next generation, you don’t have a future.
Hispanics are 52% of the children under 18 in California now.
White kids - the Americans - are like 18%.
In 1970, they were like 80%.
That’s what Musk is talking about.
You want to joke about it, act clueless….maybe that’s why he’s saying something.
The bubble you live in is gonna burst.
Exactly.
“Obsessed “?
Pointing something out isn’t an obsession
Elon is ABSOLUTELY right! Anybody who is heavily into genealogy understands this.
What is this about calling Musk “obsessed”? Having a strong opinion that you repeat does not equal obsessed. Misuse of an over-used word.
Interesting.
My MD. is from Nigeria, best doc I ever had. I read there’s a particular tribe there that has very high IQs and they are fast tracked for immigration. His wife is a doctor too with her own practice and they are putting three boys through college.
