Well this is a long pontificating article but I’ll chime in here as a parent with one kid who just graduated elementary school and another one that just graduated middle school

I can tell you for a fact that here in Marin County California schools are staying more or less steady or increasing the number of students and there’s babies and toddlers everywhere

I just watched a middle school graduation where there was 450 children and we had to watch every single one of them come up on stage it took quite a while

So in general we get from the media is doing gloom doom gloom and doom gloom doom 🤡 clowns they are

How many such relationships do we have in California?


Many, many. And every one is a non-birth-producing couple. I'm not critisizing, just stating an inescapable fact.

So, we are to conclude that the statistics being trotted out about California in this article where they got their data from government statistics are wrong because THE SCHOOL DISTRICT in the wealthy Marin County has babies and toddlers everywhere?

My 92 yr. mom lives in my home I have begged her to relocate with me but OMG you would think I was killing her!! ALL of her friends have passed away I don’t know WHY she insists upon staying in CA. I think it is because of my father being buried here and she wouldn’t be able to visit the cemetery and possibly the church she has been attending!! I HATE IT HERE!! It would be a PERFECT time to sell my home equity has skyrocketed and there is NO inventory in real estate property right now, it is a sellers market, my home would be gone within 24 hours!!

“Now there’s at least 40 million and a quarter of them speak no English at all.”

The old California was immigrated out of existence. With plenty of help from GOP dimwits who cheered on the mass displacement of Americans.

Why have babies, when you can envision no decent future for them?

“Why have babies, when you can envision no decent future for them?”

Carl Sandburg said, “A baby is God’s opinion that life should go on.”

Thought I read from the Fourth Turning guy (Howe) that even CentroAmerica and Mexicano birth rates are plummeting. Take away the illegals and CA ironically may start to turn things around just as it’s going bankrupt.

Birthrate will be dropping because of coming high unemployment.
No one wants a child when he/she cannot support one. Also expect increase in abortions.

They have a lot of men who like men, men who think they are women, women who like women, very unfair family courts, high taxes, and no water.

“We don’t typically have it in the provisional report,” said Hamilton. “Our report does have births to married documented and unmarried undocumented mothers birthing people, we have that, but it’s not typically in the provisional report—but that’s another dimension that we’ll look at.”

I am shocked - shocked, I say - by the political incorrectness evident in this article!

I am also a native Californian, there was only 10 million here when I was born, don’t recognize my own state now days.

It’s turned into a huge 3rd world ghetto with real shit in the streets!

THIS SUMMER SHOULD BE A WHOLE LOT OF FUN!

I predicted that to my wife 5 or 6 years ago, also told her I would laugh like hell when the feds finally decide decriminalize or legalize the nefarious weed.

All these idiots up here who have invested 100’s of thousands of dollars in their greenhouses and new 400 foot deep wells are going to go STONE COLD BROKE when the BIG TOBACCO COMPANIES get into the business.

Phillip Morris
R J Reynolds
Drummond Tobacco
Brown & Williamson
And the list goes on to hundreds of smaller companies.

well thanks for admitting that zero population growth means death, even if it’s about 30 years too late

And a self-forced error of social engineers who preached to American parents that having children killed the environment and hurt mother earth and stuff and the state’s resources and beauty would last longer with less population pressure - for the kids.

Of course, the change in tune isn’t really to get Americans to have more children; it’s to get Americans to accept illegal immigration of unskilled workers with large famlies.

This is a misdirection piece.

They are already taking care of wiping out elderly payers and reducing the pool of users with the covid vaccines.

They know what they have done and this is a total misdirection piece.
