Taking immigration into account, the American population is steadily growing, at a rate higher than the overall world population growth rate.

Yes, the US population is growing thanks to immigration. Most of that growth is due to third world peoples with low IQ, no education, no skills, and no prospect for economic or cultural development. Quality matters more than quantity - it makes no difference if the US population grows if that growth turns our cities into replicas of Mexico City slums.

We'd be better off with modest population growth or even zero growth while maintaining higher quality human capital.

There’s no chance of this happening.

“with modest population growth” 2/3rds of the US current population growth is from immigration. The US needs a higher birthrate, not a lower one.
