Is that why all those Ukrainian women are looking for a husband overseas?

The Chinese will fill the void with their 1.3 billion and growing subjects.

I believe the Chinese are also suffering a drop in birthrate & aging population, thanks to their one-child policy & female infanticide. It will be only a question of time for them, as well.

A mechanical surgical procedure is easier to schedule and handle logistically than regularly distribute birth control pills.
Putin could boost the population rate to at least twice his goal just by outlawing abortion.

The big problem for the Chinese is the under 40 age male ~ female ratio which is 100 males / 80 females. Kinda difficult to maintain or improve the birth rate with this mix.

Based on several visits to Moscow on business I have started to warm up to our former enemy. On a business level they are mostly westernized. They speak English, listen to country music, and are hardworking and entreprenurial. There is still many remnants of the USSR but it seems to fading quick.

The mayor of Moscow decreed that there should be Christmas decorations at every place of business.

I am now very hard pressed to view the Russian people as enemies. There may well be more Communists / Socialists in the USA then are in Russia.

The Russian and Ukrainian men are notorious for alcohol and tobacco abuse resulting in an average life expectancy of around 58 years. Compared to ours of 82 years, the Ukrainian women certainly would be interested in having a man last as long as her.

Which is a definte plus for us Western men as the women of the Former Soviet Union are the most beautiful in the world and have wonderful family values.

Ask if Mexico can help. Import welfare mothers. Put Democrats in charge of your immigration policies.

Ivan Average probably hated communism with a vengeance and was not sad to see it go.

The problem is Russians has an anchor baby legal cause as well. Combined with universal socialized health care it means planeloads of pregnant women from Central and South Asia arriving everyday to call 911 from airport and give a birth and then sue the government for greencard and welfare paychecks to support a citizen-baby. A dozen of relatives are following in a few years using legal loopholes as well. That actually contributes a lot to their present slight population growth.
$9,000 bonus is not enough for make most native Russians breed.

Yes, but they need be reminded that they were the wellspring of an ideology which has murdered millions and enslaved many more.

Knowing the Chinese as I do, half my family is Chinese, yes.

The Chinese are disciplined beyond anything I have seen in the US or Russia for that matter.

News flash...Karl Marx was German not Russian. My point is that Marxism is being rooted out of Russia while it is taking hold here. Whether it is Russia or China we need to quit beleiving that we are somehow immune from what happened in those countries.

While keeping a reign on our native Marxists we have unleashed them or their policies on the rest of the world. We have divereted a significant amount of the world’s food supply into fuel, we have allowed Malaria to kill millions by our ban on DDT, we have proped up blood thirtsy dictators with the IMF, and now we eroding the wealth of many millions by the unlimited printing of dollars. Make no mistake our home grown Marxists are deadly.

Which country has destroyed God and family the most?

I know Marx was German, but Communism took hold first in Russia. The Russians have given us this sick philosophy as well as political correctness, diversity and other obnoxious beliefs. THEY are to blame for much of the world’s problems, period.

Marx was German and the first Marxist inspired party was the German SPD which was founded as a Marxist political party. It is the second leading party to this day having only recently lost their majority status.

The US also bought into this philosophy early on in its inception but it has taken until now for the Marxist to get the upper hand. Unfortunately, while most other countries are disavowing Marxism we are embracing it.

In the US we had Progressivism and Social Darwinism well before the 1900’s. These philosophies are kith and kin to Marxism and it blinded many in this country to the evil that was occuring in Russia.
