U.S. births fell for the fourth year in a row, the government reported Wednesday, with experts calling it more proof that the weak economy has continued to dampen enthusiasm for having children.

Most striking in the new report were steep declines in Hispanic birth rates and a new low in teen births.

Among the people who study this sort of thing, the flagging economy has been seen as the primary explanation. The theory is that many women or couples who are out of work, underemployed or have other money problems feel they can't afford to start a family or add to it.

And who said teens are not financially responsible

Any organism will fill its territory to capacity then slow it's birth rates. I guess we're full America.

Good thing we produced plenty of dumbasses to keep it entertaining. I think the quality of the entertainment would improve dramatically if they would just remove some warning labels.

I'm pretty sure I remember from "The Matrix" (the original one) that Agent Smith said that's not true of humans...that humans were like a virus who use all all the resources of an area and then move on.
