German population continues to decline

The American birthrate is quite low among reasonably well-off whites - in other words people who correspond to Europeans.  The reason the overall birthrate is so high in the US is because of very large numbers of desperately poor whites and of course even larger numbers of extremely disadvantaged minority people.

Actually most Euros I meet here seem extremely satisfied with life back home - of course they're obviously upper-middle class types, but then again those are the only types that could get into the US anyway.

It is really almost impossible to imagine a person who was used to the pleasant lifestyle on The Continent choosing to live in the boring USA - I mean the bad food alone would kill you.
