According to a 2012 Bureau of the Census estimateThe nations total population would cross the 400 million mark in 2051, reaching 420.3 million in 2060.
I find this to be another disinformation ploy. It comes at a time when Obama has just given amnesty to 5 million. The meme is that we need more immigration because we have low birth rates. The US population will increase by 100 million in the next 45 years. In 1970 we had a population of 201 million; today it is 320 million. We have added almost 40 million since 2000.
On July 1, 1946 (12 days before I was hatched) the population was 141,00,000. We’ve doubled that number plus almost 40M more.
