You must be fortunate to live in the country. That or on the nicer side of your town.

Anybody who is forced to live in the Barrio knows the world is overpopulated. Try shopping in a Squal*Mart on the wrong side of the tracks sometime, you'll change your tune in a hurry.

Different ethnic groups have differing attitudes toward family size. Hispanic populations place greater emphasis on fertility and larger family size than do those of European descent. Infertility is grounds for divorce in Islamic countries. White Europeans are not having children at replacement levels. Americans, just barely. In another 500 years world demographics will be vastly different than they are today.

How about the woman buys her own contraception or supports her own child for 18 years?

I can't believe you even asked that question. Are unable to even comprehend the concept of personal responsibility for one's actions????

I realize that, but still this is the United States. Not Mexico, not Iran. They are free to overpopulate their own countries as much as they want but it is my opinion that if you want to come and reside HERE....then you need to assimilate to OUR attitudes about family size. And I think most American born people are tired of being crowded out even if they are afraid of saying so.

They are here, and they are often citizens so there isn't much you can do about it. OUR attitude will change as the population does.

Well that's not the way it should be. You don't move to another country and start demanding that the natives cow-tow and assimilate to your way of life. It should be the other way around.
