I approved of it. He didn't wet himself and his dentures didn't fall out. Good job, Donny!

Wow, thank you for admitting that Obama's speeches were completely meaningless.

The sheep believe if they just vote Democrat they will get their "free health care." Been believing it since at least the 1980s.
The President is a fink.

Don’t confuse Obama with Donald.

Donald’s teleprompter speeches are meaningless.

You were having hypothetical kids,
I gave you a hypothetical wife.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Only reasoning I can see is that population decline is coming. Just saw an article that it will come 50 years sooner than the UN is predicting. It seems no longer in doubt that the better off a society becomes the lower the birth rate. Drudge had a link today that migration will be 95% of population growth in the USA soon.

But I still see kids as a lifestyle choice the chooser needs to pay for.


Yup

-the children did not ask to be born

-employers don't force you to get pregnant (there should be no workplace benefits that come into play for being pregnant and/or having a baby)

-the people with the most kids are usually the ones that can afford them the least without charity and/or government assistance (and please do not inundate me with some wealthy family that has 20 kids -- they are the outlier and usually make money by being on television)

-the better off a society becomes, the more wealth it has and the less people have to pool their resources as a family unit -- as such, having family becomes more -EV than it already is

I can throw in a hypothetical mother in law, that he can't do anything right by. [she hates him, and tells his wife he cheats on her]

Census Bureau has USA migration at 48% of population growth in 2019 and 82% of population growth by the year 2050.

Mexico is emigrating 17.5% of it's natural growth out of the country which will rise to 81.5% by 2050.

Russia's migrants and births can't come close to replacing the deaths (just like today).


Population : Births Deaths Net Number of Migrants

2050
398,328,349 4,413,478 4,090,832 1,473,815 UnitedStates
150,567,503 1,692,379 1,300,903 -319,203 Mexico
129,908,086 1,123,705 1,913,546 +241,629 Russia

2019
331,883,986 4,115,361 2,744,681 1,267,797 UnitedStates
127,318,112 2,267,536 686,245 -235,539 Mexico
141,944,641 1,462,030 1,904,897 +241,306 Russia


Obviously, the Census Bureau has to be conservative about migration estimates. They historically way underestimate migration numbers.
