Perhaps fairus thinks gold will be discovered again?

I think 60 Million is more realistic.

No the gold is in Texas now.

Actually your the silver medalist.

These types of projections assume firstly that fecundity will be at the current level forever and secondly that immigration will continue at the same or even greater pace. In fact, fecundity amongst the domestic born continues to plummet and secondly, even in our current "source" areas for immigration, is on the verge of going below replacement if not already there.

So, domestic fecundity is on the way to Spain / Japan territory and the supply of immigrants will slowly but surely dry up.

By 2050 we'll probably have passed our peak US population (perhaps we'll be substantially past it), other major industrial countries will have abandoned cities, and the rest of the world will be freaking out wondering what happened to their export markets.

Not if Mormons have anything to do with it.

I think we're very, very close to peaking.

Fairus is a doomsday alarmist. But I found these projections to be entertaining-if not scary.

Wow....California is expected to have more people than the entire NE and slightly higher than the Midwest. That's interesting to say the least.

I think that's disgusting, I don't plan on living in my state much longer and I definitely wouldn't live here with 30 million people.

82 million people in California is just too much.
