“U.S. Population Grew at Slowest Pace in More Than 80 Years” is not game related, but it is related to the way immigration is going to continue: there are simply too few workers, relative to the number of old people drawing benefits in the form of Social Security and Medicare.
As birthrates have dropped and death rates risen, immigrationâs role in the nationâs continuing population growth has expanded. Last year, it accounted for 48% of the countryâs growth, up from 35% in 2011
Until and unless native-born persons have more kids, we’re going to see the demand for labor come from other places. Seriously, go to an old folks home sometime, if you haven’t been. I have some elderly relatives. 98% of the workers there are foreign-born.
If you dislike this trend, you’re having a bunch of kids to compensate, right?
Right?
We get the society we build.
“We get the society we build” is also why I love the Zero electric motorcycle. It’s an amazing product to ride and puts $0 into the coffers of Saudi Arabia, a country whose religious lunacy fuels its anti-sex and pro-terrorism stance.
