Yesterday, the Berkshire Eagle published an example of how badly Collins and his science-following bureaucrats have failed to maintain the country’s vitality, in a distressing story headlined “Declining birth rate threatens future U.S. economic growth.”

Experts like Francis Collins expected the pandemic to produce a baby boom. Their hopelessly naive thinking was that, since Americans were forced to spend more time together during pandemic lockdowns, the spark of romance would kindle a massive wave of new births, reversing an ominous post-2000 trend.

Instead, the opposite occurred. The experts were wrong, again. Birth rates declined during lockdowns, accelerating an existing Millennial trend and, for the first time, falling below replacement rates.

What do the experts say now? Nothing. They have become hopelessly baffled, worthless human detritus of a failed political science experiment. Civilization is literally collapsing while our ineffectual expert class plays dance tunes on deck. There is really nothing bad that cannot be said about our current orthodox science establishment.

The silver lining though is how well the empire’s invisible clothing has been exposed to public scrutiny. They want to cry about lost trust? As Collins’ tone-deaf, non-apology proved, loss of trust is just the beginning.

Can't trust any data out of N. Korea. But it does look like a gearing up for war with younger males on both sides. And yes I know the war never ended.

Sucks to be a Korean male 35 and under. More competition to get the ladies unless you're game to fuck a 70+ year old woman.

Demographics is destiny.

And Ohomenbot needs to upgrade to a 9600kb modem to receive news faster.

And I guess N. Koreans are going to Russia to assist with Ukraine... Well that happened quickly from that comment. Didn't think it would be Ukraine though. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nbcnews.com%2Fnews%2Fworld%2Fnorth-korea-soldiers-russia-ukraine-war-putin-china-rcna177211&ved=2ahUKEwifg5ue56mJAxVhkokEHdWfGl8QvOMEKAB6BAgUEAE&usg=AOvVaw0tOsR616b0ZKj0-PyL0NuK

Why is less traffic and more affordable housing somehow considered to be a problem???

The current Ukraine - Russia war suggests that it's the 30-60 year olds who should worry about getting drafted.

Maybe get one of those good US ROBOTICS 56k models.

Conservative women ready to celebrate Trump victory by having more babies — as liberal ladies swear off sex

If China would have a shooting war with India, they could really "clean out this place".

"I'm not saying we're wouldn't get our hair mussed; but no more than 10 to 20 million killed, tops!" General Turgidson Dr. Strangelove.

Amazon is offering free, warmed, recyle-able drone pickups for fleshlights of the unvaccinated to distribute to fertility centers.

Reimbursements negotiable.

Yeah, but what is the fertility rate in the invaders population?

Nothing boosts fertility like war.

Yep, we're going to knock up the women before we send them overseas.

It's time for equity, the next war should be all-women draftees.

We can emergency authorize millions of Filipinas and Latinas to come in as emergency workers ;)

As the ascending Yuga enlightens the collective consciousness and raises the general IQ, the bloodlines have to struggle mightily to replace the ascendant and aware populations with grunting primitives to keep their control grids effective.

Al_Sharpton_for_President says

Yeah, but what is the fertility rate in the invaders population?

That is what is propping up Sweden's and Germany's birth rates. They would be more like Switzerland's or even Italy's otherwise.

Booger says

No correlation, I'm sure.

China today is 4 times more populous than the United States. At the turn of the century, it could conceivably have roughly the same number of people as America.

China's population, reported to be 1.41 billion, will drop to 330 million by the end of the century, predicts Yi Fuxian of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. This startling conclusion is included in a paper to be published in the Winter 2024 issue of the Contemporary China Review. He's not the only one concerned. "China has embarked on a road of demographic no-return," writes Wang Feng of the University of California, Irvine. Yi puts it this way: "Left unaddressed, China's demographic trap could precipitate a civilizational collapse."

Yes, the number for a sustainable middle class. No nation can support a billion plus people unless 3/4 of them are living hand to mouth.

That's not how demographic collapse works. Absolute numbers don't matter; relative ones do.

Think of it being like a plague only in slow mo.

There won't be enough consumers or workers relative to retired for DECADES. And infrastructure breaks down because it can't be maintained. South Korea, Ukraine and Russia are also getting hit with this. Same for Germany, Spain and Italy as well.

Canada bought itself some time...probably 40 years because of its hyper immigration policies but most nations can't do that.

🤦 Has nothing to do with the quote function. Has everything to do with all these threads turning into screen shots of unoriginal content. Not searchable. You have to scroll a ton if you haven't visited a thread and everyone is just posting images. It's Idiocracy at it's worst. It's lazy.

I know that might hurt some feels, but I wish people would post less images. I came here for real estate and it evolved into politics. Fine. But it's unreadable at this point. Frankly childish. Have your own thoughts. Post a link and the user can choose to view it or not. I'll click it if intrigued or not. I don't need articles forced down my throat through images.

I know, there's ignore before someone goes there. But let's all be honest this is getting dumber by the day. If you have to quote other people and don't have a cogent thought, what was the point? Invite that person to the site instead of just ripping their comments via screen grab. It's a low level of plagiarizing. Or just write your own stuff.

Good for you.
