The irony is that, just like most of the countries in Europe, we all need immigration.

USA has had the similar birth rate trending as Europe for years now:
The United States is experiencing a demographic shift that could reshape the nation’s future. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows America’s total fertility rate has plummeted to a historic low of 1.6 children per woman—well below the 2.1 replacement level needed to maintain population without immigration.
The US has remained below replacement level fertility since 2007, with only brief exceptions since the early 1970s. The trend accelerated after the Great Recession and shows no signs of reversing, sparking intense debate about what this means for America’s economic and social future.
The implications extend far beyond birth certificates and hospital delivery rooms. This demographic shift touches every aspect of American life—from the viability of Social Security and Medicare to the future of economic growth, from housing markets to educational systems, from military recruitment to political representation. The babies not being born today represent missing workers, consumers, taxpayers, and innovators of tomorrow.

in case you arent a subscriber:

It makes the point that Americans forget: you can’t vote your way out of a disaster. Voting is the end of the hard work, but we have been taught that it’s all you have to do. The Dems were never going to do anything until the people forced it. The GOP were going to keep supporting it until the people forced it. The “just vote” crowd think just voting got us a 40 hour work week, got desegregation in the south, got the voting right act, ended slavery, stopped intermittent camps, etc.

I hope this is a moment when we open our eyes and get woke to the power we have, instead of waiting for the sociopathic cowards in elected office to do something they lack the moral capacity.
