The entire premise that western nations need a larger population is pure spoon fed B.S..
Even more foolish is the notion that Americans should get into a breeding contest.



While the numbers you quote are, I am sure, factual. It is also factual that the USA reached zero population growth sometime in the '70s. That 100 million plus increase over forty years is due solely to immigration.

This nation would be much stronger today, and many problems would never have come to exist if our population was stagnant still at 226 million.

People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
