A society that accepts and promotes abortion and contraception is killing off its own people, who constitute its daily business market. Eventually, that society will become economically sterile. Before it is too late, nations must reject the economics of death and embrace the economics of life.

The pope pronounced our doom in similar words a few years back as quoted in the Tablet (UK catholic paper). Have never been able to find the exact quote.

Any thoughts on the people about my age (post Vatican II, post-baby boom, but pre-Watergate) who are childless because we can't find spouses?

I could just be all that time I spent working my way through school and in practice modules, but...

This is very good article. There was another article that appeared in the current Human Life Review discussing this, focusing on the economic and cultural effects of the population collapse. The article was entitled A Foundering Civilization, by Robert de Marcellus.

He points out that in addition to the truly dire economic effects, one of the cultural effects is that in countries like Spain and Italy, which have the lowest birth rates in Europe (about 1.2), this means "that in every generation the native population will be nearly halved." Surely, this will have a profound effect on life these countries (particularly since almost all members of their respective immigrant populations are Muslims).

The utter basic Truth of this statement is simultaneously simple and complex. Socialists like H. Clinton who want to give free nationalized health care to everyone, simply don't understand the basic economics of their juxtapositioned beliefs.....WHO WILL BE ALIVE TO PAY FOR IT ????

Thanks for ping. As American population dwindles, we apparently need influx of immigrants. Sadly, many of most intelligent, educated American women decide to be "child free" or delay giving birth until their 40s, when they may not be able to conceive, even with fertility drugs. Meanwhile, vast majority of immigrants come to our shores in dire straits, uneducated, unhealthy. Of course, many succeed in pulling themselves up, but a great many are just another drain on the economy. Thank you, Feminazis.
