That's because Mexican citizens come here to have kids.
Is that really why their birth rate is as low as ours ? Or was that just an ignorant comment on your part that you didn't realize their birthrate was similar or that Mexcio has has a net positive immigration flow over the last couple years?

Hmm, well the replacement rate is 2.1, so cutting off the credit after 1 kid will probably have negative consequences.
The can is just kicked down the road 20 years. Hopefully the loons will be dead by then.
The people complaining about immigration and kids have no idea how big of an impact demographics play in the economy. A country not meeting replacement rate faces the threat of decade long recessions (cough Japan cough cough)
Well for someone who likes to call others ignorant, you should first look in the mirror. God bless.
A typo doesn't show ignorance. Making comments about Mexico and birthrates from an uneducated stance would show ignorance however. God bless? Interesting
Do you even know what the birthrate is in the US? Its primarily two Countries on this planet that are leading to overpopulation, India and China. Neither the US nor Europe are the Cause of overpopulation.
You are responding to someone who can be identified by poorly researching and supporting their random opinions.

Yes it does. Of course an ignorant person wouldn't know that. By the way, Mexican is not a race, it's an ethnicity. Just a little word to the wise there.

Clarify the exact meaning of a nationality. Is everyone born in Mexico a Mexican, and that is their nationality, even if their parents are WASPs or Arabs? What about those born outside Mexico, but born in the Mexican diaspora? Is their nationality Mexican or that of the country they're born in? Is a nationality permanent? I.e. "once a Mexican, always a Mexican, no matter where they are, nor for how many years, nor what citizenship they have." Or is it only what country they live in at the moment?
Is Aztec an ethnicity? What percentage of Mexicans are at least part Aztec?
I think the terms are ambiguous and confusing. For example the Cherokees were at one time called the Cherokee Nation. Was that their nationality? Or their ethnicity?
Terms such as nation, nation state, state, country, ethnicity: they all seem to get conflated, confused, etc., to the point where people who argue about them tend to be arguing about different things and going in circles because of those differences.
