I found this article (http://inamerica.blogs.cnn.com/2012/05/17/census-2011-data-confirm-trend-of-population-diversity/?hpt=hp_t2) to be very interesting.

Eventually race boundaries will be so blurred that most people will check "other" when asked what race they are. It's inevitable.

There is no doubt White people are having less babies. Truth is, white people can not afford to. If looked at, these statistics can bring up accuracy into why people are poor. The more kids any family has, the more expense there is. I know I could not afford to be having as many children as some people because it would take away from the standard of living I want to live in and provide for. I can't imagine how expensive college is going to be in the future but I find it crucial for any child to get such an education or learn a trade. How does such families afford this? Is it not smart to consider the expense overall for a family? I know people that just have kids and they make it by fine but they are not able to give their kids the same things as those with less kids. Who's fault is that and does that create some sort of class war? I think it's a big problem because often to many times these families use the system. I honestly think there should be no help to families that have kids and can't afford them. Call me mean or heartless but tax payers should not have to help those who can't help themselves. These families have these kids that overwhelm the system. This is a major problem because people with less education are known to commit more crimes because what else are they goig to do? We are either stuck supporting them in jail or on welfare. Every problem leads to another and the only problem I have is don't force anyone to support these people. You have more kids you can afford, deal with it on your own. Cut the welfare and social services out and you will see changes in the statistics in a few years.

Your title for this thread was 98% accurate. It's what America is. Just add another few pots tipped over dripping into the American pot.

My intention was to point out that as America becomes more racially diverse, there will be a lot more interracial marriages and hence fewer and fewer children that are of any specific race. I'm not saying this is good or bad, I just saying it's inevitable.

I think getting the economy back on it's feet is the priority. More people with jobs means less of a burden on social services. I'm not going to get into all of the opportunities we continue to miss because of bad government and corporate control of technologies that would make us free from foreign dependence. We are perfectly capable of taking care of ourselves and our people. We're not being allowed to.
