Scary but something to be concerned about. It seems we have doubled our population in a little over a half century.
How is that scary? When people have babies, populations grow. I think you could of figured that out. Just means Americans are popping out more babies. At least we're not like Russia, they're so desperate they actually pay people to have kids.

stats show the death ratio vs. birth ratio
American: for every one death only one birth.
mexicans; for every one death eight births.
What I'd like to know is HOW this person came up with his numbers. The US census bureau doesn't even know how many illegals are in the country, yet this guy knows how much illegals use in social services, how much they paid in taxes, how much they are costing every school the go to, how much they cost being in incarceration, etc? Sorry but I don't buy it for a second, especially when I haven't seen ONE other study that confirms his findings.
Apparently I have been improperly informed all along. I have been told that rapid population growth, especially from abroad greatly strains public accomodations and our social fabric in general.
I have been told many Americans don't like crowds, especially ones that don't speak our language and travel in packs.
I have been told that people have their own country and to be allowed to reside in another regulations must be adhered to(first).
I have been told that the reasonable way for those other nations citizens to improve their lot is by working in their countries of origon to improve their corrupt societies instead of wrecking ours.
I have been told most leading countries of the world have very stringent immigration policies.
I have been told that the powers that be that allow any of our great cities to become a threshhold of immigrants(of any kind) are truly unamerican and unfit for public service.
Obviously I have been misinformed, possible by what now is known as bad people and bigots. Seems all of the above has come to pass or somehow rendered void. Shame on us!

Are you sure about that?
The birthrate SOB is 2.4 children per woman-------down from 5.7 back in 1975.
Looking at Spain; another 'Hispanic' country, their raw birthrate is about 1.3 children------Espana is facing the real possibility of population decline and too they have a major illegal immigrant problem as well. Mostly Africans but quite a few Mestizos from Latin American------and, word has it the Spaniards are angry and scared. To the point that Spain is asking for help from other EU countries in dealing with their illegal immigrant invasion.
Replacement level to maintain the population is 2.1 kids.

Not saying they are only having 2.5 children.. just that it showed for every American death.. only one American birth.. and for every mexican death, 8 births.. different type of statistic.. so not sure how the ratio % American vs. mexican.. fits into the .. having 2.5 per family stats.
BTW.. what are they doing with the other half of the kid?
