i am not the one making ridiculous claims...BTW in ten years Mexico fertiltiy rate falls to replacement...jsut as we didnt get swapmed by Irish and Italian catholics, we wont get swamped by hispanics.

You are talking about TOTALLY different mindsets. The europeans that came here were at the time impoverished, but their civilization had it's ups and downs in a short period of time. With the mexican and central americans, they have been pretty backward forever. Their birthrates will NOT decline, not in mexico and certainly not in the US.

""Their birthrates will NOT decline, not in mexico and certainly not in the US.""

Ahhh..theyre already declining. next to South Korean no country has seen its fertility rate fall faster in the last 30 years than Mexicos.

1970 7.0
1980 5.0
2005 2.45
2015 2.1 (replacement level)
2050 1.8 (mexico's population begins to shrink)

One thing we know for cetain from fertiltiy rates, is this. Mexico's labor force in 20 years will be gorwing at less than 1/2 the rate it is today....it is a fact, it is 100% accurate.

Falling fertility rates are happening everywhere, even in Islamic countries.


AS gues what Ireland and Italy 100-150 years ago were MORE backward than Mexico is today
