“In 2020, the U.S. fertility rate stood at 1.78. The fertility rate is the average number of children women have during their reproductive years. A fertility rate of 2.1 is needed to maintain stasis — to have sufficient births to offset deaths so the total population size remains consistent and doesn’t shrink.

“It’s evident that the U.S. is way below this and the rate keeps dropping. Just a decade ago, in 2010, the fertility rate stood at 2.06.” – Townhall

To paraphrase Mark Steyn, the thing to know about the future is that you have to show up for it. Those who spread gloom and doom – Covid, climate disaster, racist country, rotten people, unemployment – are, intentionally or not, lowering the birth rate until there will be no more U.S. Have a nice day.
