Who cares if Pittsburgh has flat growth. No good jobs here for the average person. Kids just out of high school work in the service industry, live together without marriage, and apply for food stamps and as many freebies they can get.
“Kids just out of high school work in the service industry, live together without marriage, and apply for food stamps and as many freebies they can get.”
That seems to be the future for many whites here in NJ as well; the trends that destroyed black America in the 1960s and 1970s are being mirrored in the white community (post-Christian morality, welfare culture). The birthrate is lower because the 1996 welfare reform ended “cash-for-more-kids”, but enough local freebies were tossed in to alleviate the austerity of the welfare reform law to keep it as a desirable goal for aimless young people.
All of these projections about white America’s dwindling numbers are false; they are becoming a minority NOW. My town’s Peruvian Day parade dwarfs the St. Patrick’s Day parade, which in the past had been a huge event (my town itself had 2 pipe bands and 5 fish-and-chip restaurants).
