Birth rates are dropping all around the world.
To sustain a stable population, the birth rate needs to be 2.1 children per female. If the replacement rate drops below 2.1, serious economic problems begin to occur. For example, the ratio of active workers to retirees shrinks, resulting in a greater tax burden on workers to support the elderly. We are down to 2.7 workers per Social Security recipient and are facing bankrupty of the Social Security system in a few short years.
The United States birth rate was 3.65 in 1960. It has declined steadily to the present rate of 1.62. There is no evidence this trend will change.
Since Roe v. Wade, America has killed 63 million fetuses in the womb. This would have reversed the declining birth rate necessary to sustain our population.
I was watching a video about declining birth rates last night, when my wife said, "We should outlaw abortion."
One of many reasons I married her.
The country with the lowest birth rate is South Korea. They stand at a shocking 0.73.
They are followed by Hong Kong at 0.78, Singapore, Taiwan, and Macau at 1.2.
China really shot themselve in the face with their One Child Policy and stand at 1.0. They have repealed the One Child Policy for that reason.
Abortion is legal in all these countries, although in South Korea it has only been legal since 2019.
Fox News viewers will be pleased to hear the countries with the highest birth rates are Chad at 9.4, Somalia at 9.1, Congo at 5.9, the Central African Republic at 5.81, and Niger at 5.79.
Fox News viewers will also be pleased to hear those countries do not top the list of countries with the highest death rates. Not even close.
The United States is only just now pondering what to do about our low birth rate. Tucker Carlson believes shining red light on your balls will solve the problem. I kid you not.
Other countries, especially in Asia, have been working on this problem for a long time. Cash incentives and so forth. All attempts have failed.
There is one other solution aside from banning abortion which is guaranteed to be successful.
Immigration. Lots of immigration.
We have 63 million unborn to replace.

Over 63 million abortions have occurred in the US since Roe v. Wade decision in 1973
More than 63 million abortions are estimated to have taken place in the U.S. since the Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, according to one analysis.
U.S. Birth Rate (1950-2025)
Crude birth rate indicates the number of live births occurring during the year, per 1,000 population estimated at midyear. Subtracting the crude death rate from the crude birth rate provides the rate of natural increase, which is equal to the rate of population change in the absence of migration.
