What if white Americans moved back to Europe? (life, country, place)

[callmemaybe]

I had a thought. Since the native population of Europe is dying, do you think it's possible they might eventually encourage Americans and Canadians to move there and assimilate so that the European ethnic groups don't die out and become swamped by African and Asian groups moving in?

Could the idea of a mass exodus back across the Atlantic be a possibility?

Interesting idea. When you trace my family back though we came from Germany, England, and Ireland.
So Which one?
Most people are happy with the life they made here though.
(If I had to live in another place other than America though it would probably be one of those three places.
that I would chose - or Canada probably.

I don't see what is bad about having a mixture of the European Countries with Africans or Asians though to be truthful.

The native population of Europe isn't dying. It's shrinking slightly in some countries but that's nowhere near dying. The white American population also has low birth rates and is declining, so that wouldn't really help anyway. Also, how would you make Americans move to Europe? For the most part they don't even speak the local languages, I think most Europeans would prefer Asian immigrants who speak their language over Americans, who only speak English. Not to mention that the majority wouldn't have any interest in moving to Europe.

White genes are recessive. Over time, whites would lose their countries and their race. That wouldn't be a good thing, just as it wouldn't be a good thing for the same thing happening to any other race of people in their countries.

Actually, the white American birthrate, outside of the northeastern states, is significantly higher than European birthrates.

True but if the situation in America worsens and Europe gets better, it might be a possibility? Or maybe they would even offer incentives. It's just an idea that popped into my head. I think Americans would be able to 'become' European more easily than Asians and Africans since they share much closer roots and cultural ideals.

Some Americans are already so paranoid about becoming a minority in their own country, that i don't think a 'back to Europe' programme (like the 'Back to Africa' idea) would be that popular or well-supported. And then they'd have to kick the Muslims out, since Europe is already so crowded, certainly much moreso than North America. Many Europeans also don't seem that welcoming of Americans.

Why is it then that white Americans will be a minority in the US 40 years from now according to census statistics? The US in total has a fertility rate of 2.06, just below replacement. Non-hispanic whites are at 1.80 which is similar to several Northern European countries and not "significantly higher". Europe is just slightly "ahead" when it comes to demographic trends but the US (and especially its white population) will follow, no doubt.

Anyway, no one really knows what the world is going to be like in 30, 40 or 100 years. Who would've thought about how the world is today 40 years ago?

As long as the Americans leave their awful politics and their gun nuttery behind, otherwise the Africans and Asians are a better option.
