Nearly 75% of U.S. counties lost population last year as deaths outnumbered births, data shows
The Washington Post ^ | 3/24/2022 | Fredrick Kunkle

Almost three-quarters of all U.S. counties reported more deaths than births last year, a development largely caused by the pandemic, which contributed to a dramatic slowing in the nation’s overall population growth, according to data released Thursday by the Census Bureau.

They draw their conclusions. You may draw yours.

Whenever I see someone talking about how people are “moving” like it’s a new thing, I point out the fact that our population growth is at the lowest in its history and that any moderate migration seems bigger than it actually is.

If most births occur out of county because the county doesn’t have a hospital with a birthing unit, that would skew data.

They are not moving. They are dying. Well, I guess that is kind of a permanent move.

What makes things worse is that while there may be population replacement with these ‘migrants’ as the government calls them, they are the refuse of other countries who either could not survive on their own or they are considered ‘better gone than here.’

“largely caused by the pandemic”

And of course not by the open borders where enough fentanyl is flooding in to kill the entire population 3 times over

Health professionals kill more Americans annually than ODs.

And that’s just the mistakes.

Don’t worry - Biden and the squad have opened the southern border. I think the USA took in 2 million illegals last year.

Too many males trying to have babies. That’s not a problem with me, I am past my child-bearing years. I have already gone thru manopause.

Two local family owned restaurants are operating on reduced service hours. I asked the owner of the Greek restaurant why the continued 7 AM to 3 PM hours? The wonderful dinner menu is missed. It's a matter of having enough staff to cover the shifts. The other restaurant periodically posts early closing or full day closings for want of staff to operate.

There are hiring signs everywhere...to no avail. Even McDonald's is running radio ads trying to hire.

Bill Gates thinks this is a good thing.

So do most of the NWO elite that meet in Davos regularly.

The rural counties of NJ are importing populations from abroad; Americans have had a negative birthrate for many years.

Rural counties, especially in the Plains states, have been losing population since 1930 unless they are in commuting range of urban areas. In the Rust Belt and Appalachia, the decline in industrial and mining employment has affected rural areas as well.

There are a lot of reasons for rural decline, but the most prominent is the decline in the number of farms and ranches. Economies of scale favor larger operators. Ina few cases, it may be foreign or domestic investors, but in most cases, it is the local operator who has the financial resources to farm more land, plus the smaller operators dying or retiring without children interested in farming. It is hard financially to justify the risk vs. rewards when they can make steadier income in the cities.

Another reason is the highway system. If someone on a farm or in a small town can go to a Walmart or Lowe's within an hour's drive or less, there is no motivation to shop on Main Street. So the small town business district dries up. In turn, that causes a local class of business owners, bankers, doctors, etc., to move on. So the locally owned bank becomes a branch of a larger institution, the locally owned café is replaced by a Sonic or whatever, and the hardware store may at best become an antique shop, selling the junk of former residents now dead or moved on.

Maybe more are dying (rona/old age) but more are invading (males) and the women are having babies! See more newborns near the border than you can count!

To be fair, some are moving, some are dying. I would think that the moving dominates now. BUT don't rule out Fraudci and D Bill Gate's population plans to become dominate later on.

A cardiac surgeon has been taking blood samples for eight years to measure heart health. Every few months a blood sample is taken and then evaluated using a widely accepted PULS score. The average was about 11% chance of having a heart problem in the next few FIVE YEARS.

But after the COVID vaccinations, the scores more than doubled to 25%! That means that (almost) everyone who has been injected has heart damage.

The American Heart Assn when seeing this WARNING ABOUT VAXXXINES published on their web site immediately hid this and rewrote it. I guess it's better to get people vaxxxxxed and give them heart damage than it is to let them get a virus that's no more serious than the average flu case.

And if you want to do the right thing and die by vaxxxxxine induced heart problems, be sure to line up for your booster shots, ALL OF THEM. The more people who die now, the better for the planet Earth. /sarc

Even pay incentives are failing to attract applicants. Perhaps the dead are unable to respond to the incentives.
