USA Faces Demographic Crisis as European-Americans Slide into Minority

USA Faces Demographic Crisis as European-Americans Slide into Minority Status

The demographic crisis which imperils Europe’s future also threatens the United States of America, a fact illustrated by this week’s news that European Americans will become a minority among newborn children in that nation next year.
The US Census Bureau’s (USCB) latest report announced that non-white births accounted for 48.6 percent of the children born in America between July 2008 and July 2009, gaining ground from 46.8 percent two years earlier.
This trajectory means that non-white births will pass European-American births within the next year.
In addition, the median age of the white population is older than that of non-whites. This means that a larger number of non-white immigrant women are of childbearing age, a situation aggravated by the fact that Third World populations tend to have much higher reproduction rates than Europeans.
Among the Hispanic population, there were roughly nine births for every one death, compared with a roughly one-to-one ratio for whites.
According to the census count, as of July 2009, whites constituted 65 percent of the American population. The rate of the white decline is astonishing: in 1960, they made up 85 percent of the population.
This figure is most certainly an underestimate as the US Census bureau counts all Middle Easterners (including people from North Africa and most of the Arab world) as “white.”
An August 2008 report from the USCB projected that by 2042, whites will be an absolute minority. This is a revision of earlier projections which projected this demographic change to take place in 2050.
By 2050, the USCB said, whites will have fallen to 46 percent of the population.
The Hispanic population will be more than 30 percent of the population by then, and the number of blacks will have risen to 15 percent. Asians are expected to rise to nine percent of the population by 2050.
Overall, the population of the United States is due to rise from 296 million in 2005 to 438 million, with 82 percent of the increase coming from Third World immigrants.
The total projected growth is equal to the combined populations of Great Britain, France and Spain. The 105 million extra people which will result from this immigration wave is equal to 13 additional New York Cities.
Hispanics accounted for 54.7 percent of the total population increase between July 2008 and July 2009, with 66 percent of that increase resulting from births in America.
As shocking as these figures are, they do not even include the impact of illegal immigration. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, an independent, non-partisan, non-profit research body widely regarded as an authority on the issue, in August 2007, the illegal population total stood at around 12.5 million. This means, in real terms, that there are probably more illegal aliens in America than there are blacks.
When this figure is added to the official totals, the demographic swing against European-origin America is even more marked. As all Third World immigrants have far higher birth rates than whites, then, when the legal and illegal immigration wave is factored in, it is likely that even the 2042 date for majority non-European America is optimistic.
The effects of this Third World immigration tsunami, which has reached into all parts of America, have been uniformly negative, quite apart from the long-term implications which will see that nation downgraded to Third World Status well before the end of the 21st Century
