America became the wealthiest and greatest nation BECAUSE OF CAPITALISM.

China became far wealthier and more productive AFTER they adopted Capitalism.

The recent inflation which has raised the cost of living is caused by anti-capitalist policies fostered by the U.S. government under president Biden and other recent past presidents.

Capitalism isn't the problem. Government is the problem.

I AM a Mexican in So Cal. I am part of the culture. I live in the culture. And I can tell you, we are not the exception. In gereral, from Gen X on, hispanics are having less kids… just like the rest of the world.
I have eyes don't I or are my eyes lying? What about the link I provided are they lying to? They may be having fewer kids than decades ago but they still have the second highest fertility rates. If they are here illegally then it pays for them to have more kids so that they can tap into our welfare benefits through them.

Fertility rates by ethnicity for 2018 for the U.S. per 1,000 women per Pew Research Center.......

Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander 2106.5
Hispanic 1959
Black (non-Hispanic) 1792
American Indian/Alaska Native 1650.5
White (non-Hispanic) 1640
Asian 1525

I don't know what your point is by denying the truth. Just because you don't have any kids doesn't mean that most Mexicans here (legally or illegally) aren't producing kids at a higher level than most. I know three Mexican families here status unknown. Two have 3 kids and the other has 4. I guess that's a lie though according to you?

Yes, and it's because they have allowed capitalism to run amok.

That worked pretty well. The trouble began with Reagan's union-busting, and deregulation of many industries and certain aspects of financial services. The situation has gone downhill since.
Agree.

With the high rate of abortions I doubt that most Americans are afraid to have sex. Liberals scream about needing more immigrants to increase our so-called dwindling population growth but are advocates of abortion. WTH?

We need to breed more overpopulation activists in order to outvote the pronatalists and mount human wave attacks against Pakistan!
