America’s population of white children, a majority now, will be in the minority during this decade, sooner than previously expected, according to a new report.
The Census Bureau had originally forecast that 2023 would be the tipping point for the minority population under the age of 18. But rapid growth among Latinos, Asians and people of more than one race has pushed it earlier, to 2019, according to William Frey, the senior demographer at the Brookings Institution who wrote the report about the shift, which has far-reaching political and policy implications.
The single largest increase was among Hispanics, whose birthrates are far above those of non-Hispanic whites, largely because the white population is aging and proportionally has fewer women in their child-bearing years. The median age of whites is 41, compared with 27 for Hispanics, the report said.
As a result, America’s future will include a far more diverse young population, and a largely white older generation. The contrast raises important policy questions. Will the older generation pay for educating a younger generation that looks less like itself? And while the young population is a potential engine of growth for the economy, will it be a burden if it does not have access to adequate education?
The population of white children fell by 4.3 million, or about 10 percent, in the last decade, while the population of Hispanic and Asian children grew by 5.5 million, or about 38 percent, according to the report, which was based on 2010 Census numbers.

Whereas those pulling the wagon don't breed what they can't feed.
I know Canada is even more liberal than the US, but I just got back from Alberta, and I would move there in a heartbeat when the SHTF here.
In a SHTF or TEOTWAWKI situation,
I’d like to be somewhere with a decent growing season...
Well, that would be a heck of an opeinging line. “I have been sent by G-d...”
Exactly my point, why do we measure on ethnic appearance and not character? I would never even think of saying to my son or daughter they should not get into a relationship with someone because of their ethnicity.
Surprise, surprise; Census Bureau data reveals that most U.S. families headed by illegal immigrants use taxpayer-funded welfare programs on behalf of their American-born anchor babies.
Even before the recession, immigrant households with children used welfare programs at consistently higher rates than natives, according to the extensive census data collected and analyzed by a nonpartisan Washington D.C. group dedicated to researching legal and illegal immigration in the U.S. The results, published this month in a lengthy report, are hardly surprising.
Basically, the majority of households across the country benefitting from publicly-funded welfare programs are headed by immigrants, both legal and illegal. States where immigrant households with children have the highest welfare use rates are Arizona (62%), Texas, California and New York with 61% each and Pennsylvania (59%).
“If we ever get to deport all of these illegal aliens... this trend will reverse.”
I would heartily endorse deporting every single one of them, but that is NEVER going to happen.
They aren’t even going to “self-deport”, because — for most — the “worst” conditions they face here may be considerably better than the “best” conditions they faced wherever they came from (mostly Mexico).
There’s never going to be a Congressional majority and/or a president who would do such a thing.
And we are rapidly approaching a point where the majority of Americans would be opposed to it, as well.
Picture THIS, American style:

(I apologize for not being able to embed the pic directly into this posting)
When Americans call for exactly what you see in the pic in the link above, en masse, then - AND ONLY THEN - will we be able to “deport all the illegals”.
It just ain’t gonna happen here.
And before you go raging at me for making the analogy I have drawn through that pic, I’m no more happy about it then you are. In fact, I would _support_ exactly the kind of actions you see depicted in the link.
I used to rage against amnesty, too, but I’ve become convinced that even if we never grant “amnesty” to a single illegal, it won’t make a damn bit of difference twenty years’ hence. Because they’re all going to “auto-legalize” through their children, who of course are natural American citizens through their birth on American soil. And compared to American/Euros, Hispanic birth rates are alarming.
There are only two ways that this “auto-legalization through progeny” can be stopped:
1. Forcibly deport the illegal parents, AND
2. Strip their children of their U.S. citizenship by birth.
And again, that ain’t gonna happen.
As much as I loathe the New York Times and wish they would go bankrupt, they’re just pointing out the reality of demographics here. And if you’re a Euro/American like me, the future doesn’t look so good.
One of the most poignant conservative statements I ever read was a simple two-sentence adage, coined [I believe] by someone in old America Online “Issues” forums named “LizardNC”:
“Reality is what it is. It is not what we believe it to be.”
Doesn’t sound like much more than a play on words. But therein lies the bedrock upon which conservative thought and reason must begin.
I’ve accepted that logic, for better and for worse.
And the reality of demographics in America is that the Euro-Americans have abrogated their collective responsibilities to protect their nation, culture, borders, and ethnic heritage, and forgotten that they (like all the other people of the Earth) have an absolute right to PROTECT and to DEFEND such things against outsiders and invaders.
Multiculturalism and “diversity” have effectively “disarmed” us. And into that vacuum pours the multitudes under pressure from elsewhere.
Perhaps we are going to see a time when enough Euro-Americans will re-congregate themselves to certain portions of the country (which may not remain a unified “country” for much longer afterwards) so that that “cultural pressure” will be restored to a level where it can be effectively defended and promoted without fear. I won’t be around, but some of the younger ones here might see it.
Historically, South Africa had something called “The Great Trek”. Could the same happen here?
But deport the illegals?
C’mon.....
Anyone know how much decent farm-worthy acreage is going for in Canada?
Perhaps we will move back to Europe, where we at least can be native and reestablish some sanity there. Demography is destiny.
"All right... we'll give some land to the niggers and the chinks. But we don't want the Irish!"
I bought that movie recently. It’s a classic, classic comedy.
Well, I’d just direct you to the Immigration Act, and let you draw your own conclusions. Italians and Greeks may not have been considered “colored,” but they were certainly seen as less desirable and therefore less “white” than those from England, France, Germany, etc. The Immigration Act put these preferences into law.
I have thought about the land of my ancestors...Poland. Still relatively homogeneous (97% are ethnic Poles, I think only Japan exceeds this). I suppose it was the one silver lining of being behind the Iron Curtain, that it restricted the flow of immigrants, unlike most of Western Europe, I’ve started to look at the Highlands area, around Zakopane, it’s real beautiful there.
As long as the Russkies don’t start making trouble there again.

I beg to differ; the smart ones will know where ot hit and what to avoid getting involved in. It’s not always the aggressive, but the smart that survive.
Which is, in a nutshell, why it’s so expensive.
Much to my regret, I will inform you that while the Libs don’t have kids, the underclass have at least five per childless liberal.
If you have solid jobs skills, a solid bank account, and a brain, run to Russia or the Eastern Bloc. No welfare system there thankfully and, AND your skills will get you accepted almost anywhere. Britain, the US, and much of Europe is unique in their assistance program and thankfully no moochers will be able to be accepted into any decent country without something to offer.
