America has fewer children now than it did 10 years ago. That’s not in terms of percentages but raw numbers. New Census Bureau data released on Thursday show how the age pyramid of the United States is looking less like a pyramid and more like an upside-down onion or a vase.
America has more people in their 60s than we have under age 10.
We’ll get to that onion-vase in a minute, but let’s just start with the minor shortage, which was discovered in the most recent census .
“In 2020, there were over 73.1 million children under age 18,” the Census Bureau said , “down 1.4% from 74.2 million in 2010. The biggest decline was among the under-5 age group, whose share of the population dropped by 8.9% or 1.8 million.”
Every year, we have fewer and fewer children.

All part of the plan.
Does this include our new illegal invader buddies?
Literally one third of the people conceived in the U.S. in the past 50 years was aborted away.
Took decades of “over population” propaganda to get people to not have children. So it’s going to take decades more to reverse it (if its possible).
Judgment. Let it come.
And they all voted for Biden.
Pretty much everything that is leading to the decline of this great nation has/had its genesis in the Democrat party.
Abortion kills the next generations.
And their Republican flunkies.
Not surprising. With the exception of Israel, every developed nation in the world has a birth rate below the replacement rate. Even the wealthier southern states in India now have birth rates below the replacement rate. We’re witnessing a world-wide depopulation, while the leftists and enviro-cultists continue babbling mindlessly about over-population,
O noes.. pay people to have children stat. It’s the only way.
The Census Bureau was politicized when Obuma moved it into control of the White House. Believe nothing it claims.
We’ve been doing that for 50 years ... but only certain types of people ...
But when I hear low birth rate hysteria my response is it presents all the more urgency to deport illegal aliens and other foreign swarmers.
That’s a big part of it.
Part of this is people’s attitudes apart from concerns about overpopulation.
Some young people simply do not want to have children. They do not consider marriage and family to be important life goals.
They do not want to be tied down by children or a spouse.
