In modern times, nations that reach a certain economic/education level experience a drop in birthrate, actually going below replacement level. This is now the case in Europe and East Asia, and would be the case in the US if it were not for immigration. My theory is that it's an effect of birth control at the women's option. If they have the ability enough women put off having kids long enough that they never have them. The long believed Instinct for having children turns out to be an instinct to have sex. Until recently, that if you had that the children came naturally.

Let me add that conservatives who have the conservative concern for the survival of their race/tribe are figuring this out. The program of forbidding women to use birth control is coming, where they have the power to enforce it. Liberals, who take a wider view of survival issues, will not sharecthis conservative concern and will not support this.

That ban on contraceptive is in the que. Can't be going against God's will and all that. Something to please the evangelicals and neo-puritans.

Elon Musk Could Have US Citizenship Revoked If He Lied on Immigration Forms
The richest man in the world appears to have worked in the US without authorization. According to experts, if he did so and lied about it as part of the immigration process, he could be denaturalized.

Also is Musk going to now claim that he invented satellite phones?
