Analysis of data collected by Census Bureau in 2002 shows that women from the top-10 immigrant- sending countries living in the United States collectively tend to have higher fertility than women in their home countries. As a group, immigrants from these countries have 23 percent more children than women in their home countries, adding to world population growth. Among the findings:

In 2002, immigrant women (legal and illegal) from the top-10 immigrant-sending countries had 2.9 children on average, compared to a fertility rate of 2.3 children in their home countries — a 23-percent difference.

Among Mexican immigrants in the United States, for example, fertility averages 3.5 children per woman compared to 2.4 children per women in Mexico. Among Chinese immigrants, fertility is 2.3 in the United States compared to 1.7 in China. Immigrants from Canada have 1.9 children compared to 1.5 children in Canada.

It's easy to keep poppin' 'em out when Uncle Sugar is picking up the tab.

Access to better nutrition, better (taxpayer-supplied) healthcare, and poor reporting of miscarriages and the like in the 3rd World. No surprise on that data at all.

Plus, we don't force abortions on Chinese women here.

Speaking from experience?

I have looked at quite a few. I hope their husbands aren't suspicious.
