More White People Are Dying Than Are Being Born in 17 States

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.

That’s because the government doesn’t pay white people to breed...unfortunately, the same can’t be said for other folk...

Going extinct? They should just get busy then. It's a dirty job but somebody's got to do it.

The government needs to stop punishing middle class families for having children.

The middle class can’t afford children because of high taxes.

Where to this tax money go? To pay for the children of the poor. The poor have 10 kids each...all fed, housed and educated by the middle class.

Enough is enough!

The non-Hispanic white population is projected to peak in 2024, at 199.6 million, up from 197.8 million in 2012. Unlike other race or ethnic groups, however, its population is projected to slowly decrease, falling by nearly 20.6 million from 2024 to 2060.

Meanwhile, the Hispanic population would more than double, from 53.3 million in 2012 to 128.8 million in 2060. Consequently, by the end of the period, nearly one in three U.S. residents would be Hispanic, up from about one in six today.

The black population is expected to increase from 41.2 million to 61.8 million over the same period. Its share of the total population would rise slightly, from 13.1 percent in 2012 to 14.7 percent in 2060.

The Asian population is projected to more than double, from 15.9 million in 2012 to 34.4 million in 2060, with its share of nation’s total population climbing from 5.1 percent to 8.2 percent in the same period.

Among the remaining race groups, American Indians and Alaska Natives would increase by more than half from now to 2060, from 3.9 million to 6.3 million, with their share of the total population edging up from 1.2 percent to 1.5 percent. The Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander population is expected to nearly double, from 706,000 to 1.4 million. The number of people who identify themselves as being of two or more races is projected to more than triple, from 7.5 million to 26.7 million over the same period.

The U.S. is projected to become a majority-minority nation for the first time in 2043. While the non-Hispanic white population will remain the largest single group, no group will make up a majority.

All in all, minorities, now 37 percent of the U.S. population, are projected to comprise 57 percent of the population in 2060. (Minorities consist of all but the single-race, non-Hispanic white population.) The total minority population would more than double, from 116.2 million to 241.3 million over the period.

Projections show the older population would continue to be predominately non-Hispanic white, while younger ages are increasingly minority. Of those age 65 and older in 2060, 56.0 percent are expected to be non-Hispanic white, 21.2 percent Hispanic and 12.5 percent non-Hispanic black. In contrast, while 52.7 percent of those younger than 18 were non-Hispanic white in 2012, that number would drop to 32.9 percent by 2060. Hispanics are projected to make up 38.0 percent of this group in 2060, up from 23.9 percent in 2012.

Other highlights:

The nation’s total population would cross the 400 million mark in 2051, reaching 420.3 million in 2060.
The proportion of the population younger than 18 is expected to change little over the 2012-2060 period, decreasing from 23.5 percent to 21.2 percent.
In 2056, for the first time, the older population, age 65 and over, is projected to outnumber the young, age under 18.

The working-age population (18 to 64) is expected to increase by 42 million between 2012 and 2060, from 197 million to 239 million, while its share of the total population declines from 62.7 percent to 56.9 percent.

The ratio of males to females is expected to remain stable at around 104.7 males per 100 females for the population under the age of 18. For the population age 18 to 64, the ratio of males per 100 females is projected to be 98.9 in 2012 and increase to 104.1 in 2060. The ratio for the population age 65 and over is also projected to increase, from 77.3 males per 100 females in 2012 to 84.4 in 2060.

I believe you have that right. Libtards believe that immigrants will always vote dem along with their other identity groups; women, minorities, gays, urban hispsters, yada, yada. Quite frankly, as these people progress their voting patterns change, which is why dems dont like them progressing. Their birth patterns in a first world country change too; having a big family was many things, one of them being ones retirement plan. Now that they live in a first world country, no need to have six kids anymore.

The biggest factor in this trend is out-migration of working-age adults to other states with stronger employment prospects.

No, it is demographics. Non-Hispanic whites will decrease in population over the next 40 years. In addition, we bring in 1.1 million legal permanent immigrants annually, 87% of whom are minorities as defined by the USG. Since 1990 35 million legal permanent immigrants have entered this country. Immigrants and their children drive 80% of the population growth.

The non-Hispanic white population is projected to peak in 2024, at 199.6 million, up from 197.8 million in 2012. Unlike other race or ethnic groups, however, its population is projected to slowly decrease, falling by nearly 20.6 million from 2024 to 2060.

That is correct. Especially in a poor country. Having a large family was ones retirement plan. In first world country, no need for that anymore.

Did a number of the Whites who would have had kids move somewhere else?

It’s hard to raise your kids and pay for everyone else’s, too.

yes, the Baby Boom generation was a one-of population bubble. So as it dies off we are returning to normal population growth levels for a rich post-birth-control-pill nation. With the exception of the imported 3rd world we would be reverting to pre-boom growth rates adjusted for birth control limits.

Uh, did you factor in the fact the group most likely to not comply with or lie to the Census is white people?

Bill Clinton once proudly stated that he looks forward to the day when white people become a minority in the US. He and many others like him must be gloating now that his dream is coming true.

Most population growth in the US is due to Third World immigration and from the children of Third World immigrants. You cannot have a first world economy and infrastructure with a Third World dominated demographic, especially not given the fact that we're getting these country's dregs rather than their best and brightest. The elites who don't understand or acknowledge this (i.e. cheap labor Republicans) are short-sighted, corrupt, and worthless. The elites who understand it quite well and glory in it are criminals.

And simply stating such a fact in a comment makes one a raving, racist lunatic.

...America has a far higher mortality rate among babies than healthy, happy Cuba.

They're obviously counting those aborted among infant mortality statistics.

Well, sure. How many of the old white people in Florida were actually born there?

It is like Europe. Most whites have 2 children or less. The average comes out to barely above replacement levels. As older generations die off. The decline will really kick in.
