More white Americans are now dying than being born in a third of U.S. states, according to a study released Tuesday, which shows white deaths outpacing births in a record 17 states stretching from California to Maine.
The study, by the University of New Hampshire, found natural decreases in the white population across 17 states in 2014, including Florida, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, which together comprise 38% of the U.S. population. That’s a big shift from 2004 when only four states had more white deaths than births. The declines, exacerbated by the Great Recession, are largely driven by an aging white population, fewer women of childbearing age, and lower fertility rates overall, according to researchers.

LOL, so much of the healthy Cuba, outside of the political idealogues’ comments, has been debunked since 2007.
The states listed in the study (from top to bottom on their weird graph) re:
NH, MS, AR, AZ, MA, DE, NV, ME, AL, NJ, CT, NM, CA, WV, RI, PA, FL
That, and white people have a nasty habit of thinking into the future. When the future looks bleak, they hold off on childbearing. Other groups- not so much.
Frankly, I really like Mexicans. I live around a lot of them and they’re really great people. Love the food, love the work hard/play hard ethic, and, well yeah I’m Catholic so we share that too. Anyway, it beats the tar outta other groups I’ve had to deal with while in say, Atlanta. Yep.
I found Arizona and Nevada, along with Florida, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, in the article as being the one’s with fewer people, but didn’t see the other 9 states.
WayneS found the other 9; many thanks, Wayne!
Arkansas, ha ha guess those Duggars need to step it up a little!!
No, actually, the impoverished nations and groups of people support that idea to a great extent. When you are poor, the children are needed as a family workforce to handle chores, other children, etc. My sister worked in Guatemala for a time, and she said that was pretty much what the impoverished Mayan families, did. They had larger numbers of children for the sake of having plenty of kids work the farm, probably the few fortunate and literate enough had the token family “job” such as working at the hotel, that paid better, the other kids did some babysitting for the younger children and/or the farm work, and there was more besides, but there isn’t a doubt that poverty is part of the reason for having kids too.
OMG, that picture just says it all doesn’t it!?!
Well two of them are because white people retire there: Florida and Maine.
Prior go to the '50's American families followed that model on the farms but in modern America not so much. It just costs too much to raise a child when it takes two working just to pay the bills and nothing left over for daycare which is probitively expensive now. Add to that everything has gone up in price except for gas the last two terms but that could change in no time.
And the study was conducted by Captain Obvious.
That's like saying that teen births drop off in populations of women over age 19.
Solution? Lebensborn? Wheeeee! (Now that’s really racist.)
> When infant mortality is low, the motivation to have more children in a family is rapidly diminished. That is just my opinion, but it appears to be the case.
A horrible economy is also another factor since children cost big time and the fact that white people seem to be more concerned about paying their bills when permissible. Sure that sounds racist but call up any collections company and get them to tell you the truth. I’ve seen thousands upon thousands of credit reports doing background checks. The numbers speak for themselves when you’re talking generalities. There are always people who take care of their business and others who just don’t and the liberal types fall into that category big time. A great percentage of them are younger which plays into that equation though.
Under Obama,” White people” are too busy working to pay for non whites welfare aid for their children and free hospital fees to have anchor babies
The Left convinced 1. abortion is good, 2. Population control, and self sterilization. Now we have vacant homes in cities, and decreased public school enrollment across America. To get more tax dollars and funding the Left now teaches: Flood us with refugees, and illegal immigration, whom, by the way do not practice the first two points made here. The Trump Revolution cannot stop just at his election. Conservatives need to have many kids and raise them right or the left will continue to craft back door policies to destroy us.
We have the technology these days to really ramp that up too. Factories.
are you making a case for more immigration? LOL
From Scotland? Sure thing.
Thank you. And they are...? [drum roll, please]
“Amazing how many do not get that the Baby Boom was a population bubble and not a trend.”
The “baby boom” generation, as a birth marker, ended 52 years ago. The oldest baby boomers are now about 70, the youngest about 52.
