An aging America: Old people will outnumber children for the first time in the country's HISTORY

quote:


The US Census Bureau released new projections this year that showed the country's changing - and aging - demographics.

By 2030 all baby boomers will be older than age 65 and one in every five Americans will be retirement age.

The Census Bureau said that deaths will 'rise substantially' between 2020 and 2050, meaning the country's population will naturally grow very slowly.

The non-Hispanic White-alone population is projected to shrink from 199 million in 2020 to 179 million in 2060.

It’s because millennials still live at home and as a result, don’t have sex and when they do, they wear a rubber.

it can be tough to afford children nowadays. it is getting harder and harder to get married at 18 and have 4 kids by age 24.

That tends to be how it works when you have a period in our history known as the "Baby Boom"

The population surge from the Baby Boom going through the economy is easily compared to a goat going through a boa constrictor.

A huge, obvious lump that will work itself out in the end.

It's because modern white Americans, partcularly the more liberal ones, are selfish. They don't view having children as something rewarding or beneficial to society. It's all about them. Making sacrifices are not something they do.

Worlds population growth is slowing, average age is creeping up and in 40-50 years the population will begin to decline. What wars, famine and disease could not do, humans will purposely become endangered.

Whites don't even have children at a replacement rate, much less 4 per couple.

The TFR for all ethnic groups in America is trending downward, and has been for nearly 30 years.

That is a good thing. Population growth was artificially inflated, and needs a correction.

What you call selfish, many others call responsible.

How was it inflated and what was artificial about that inflation?

Nah, i'd say it's being responsible. If you're working a job that barely supports yourself you shouldn't be having children.

OT: "Do not have kids if you can't afford them or don't care enough to raise them responsibly!"

Also OT: "You are selfish if you don't want to make the necessary sacrifices to have kids!"
