More whites died than were born in a record
high 17 states in 2014 compared to just four in 2004, according to new
research from the Carsey School of Public Policy at the University of
New Hampshire. Some 121 million people representing 38 percent of the
U.S. population reside in these states: California, Pennsylvania,
Florida, Arizona, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Mississippi,
Arkansas, Delaware, Nevada, Maine, Alabama, Connecticut, New Mexico,
West Virginia and Rhode Island.
The research found that non-Hispanic white deaths now exceed births
in a growing number of states because more whites are dying and fewer
white babies are being born. These demographic changes in the white
population result from a rising number of older adults, fewer women of
childbearing age and lower fertility rates. Because these trends are
difficult to reverse many of these states are likely to see white deaths
continue to exceed births.
As white population increase has diminished it has been offset by
minority population gains, the researchers found. In particular, births
exceed deaths by a considerable margin among the Latino population
because it is younger, has a larger proportion of women of childbearing
age and higher fertility rates. The combination of these demographic
trends is increasing the diversity of the U.S. population. According to
Census Bureau projections, whites will make up less than half of the
U.S. population (47 percent) by 2050. In contrast, the youthful Latino
population is projected to be 29 percent of the U.S. population by 2060.
“These demographic trends have major policy implications,” the
researchers said. “The largely white older population will grow rapidly
as baby boomers continue to age, increasing demands on the healthcare
and retirement systems. In addition, the youthful minority population
will require major investments in education and training if the U.S. is
to maintain a productive workforce in an increasingly competitive
technological and global labor market. The competing demands will create
considerable potential for disagreements regarding funding priorities.”
Anyone, anywhere, keeping track of the numbers of lies, violations of laws, regulations, ethics, standards, and protocals broken by tRump since his stolen election?
Exactly~!
My grandmother and her sister, (my great aunt). both born at the turn of the century worked for Ma Bell, the only telephone service in the country at the time..
they were switchboard operators and retired in the mid sixties..
they never complained about their jobs being lost to modernization and they retired with a nice pension and lots of stocks when the company was broken up due to anti-trust laws…
People do not get those types of benefits anymore, or those lifetime jobs..
Back in the day the worker had some power through numbers to leverage a good deal with the employer..
Those days are nearly gone..
And with trump, they are going to disappear.

what precisely is it about these statistics that alarms you ?
societal , racial , and cultural evolution is as inevitable as biological evolution .
