The pace of babies born each year in the U.S. has slowed to a new record low, according to an analysis of 2023 birth certificate data published Thursday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

This is on par with annual declines seen before the pandemic, the report said, which averaged around 2% fewer babies each year.

People aren’t having babies even after the overturning of Roe.

Upper middle class and middle class, educated people need to stop waiting until 35 to get married and have kids.

Otherwise our society and economic system are not sustainable.

The people not having babies are professional class women with left wing views

The people having babies are religious, family folk such as Mormons.

This is good news in the long run

This trend has absolutely nothing to do with Roe, Dobbs, or abortion writ large.

What else does one expect to happen when we have promoted boy on boy, girl on girl and furry on furry relationships? Procreation is impossible

Kids are expensive in good times. Now they’re a luxury item many cannot afford.

Our politicians keep trying to herd us into densely populated cities. People don't have babies in the cities.

I think a lot has to do with how damn expensive everything is. Daycare alone is easily a grand a month in most places.

This is why America will not be a powerful nation in 50 years.

The lack of babies is key..whether it be by choice or abortion...

And I can't speak too harshly I didn't have my stuff together and get married til I was 45...

But politics and immaturity is in this big time.

So the whores really can keep their legs closed, swallow pills, refuse sex without condoms, etc... Glad you're acknowledging their agency finally.

You people are obsessed with murdering babies. Birth rate has nothing to do with Roe. It has everything to do with a bigger percentage of women being entitled, unbearable twats

Roe didn't change anything other than where you can have an abortion.

The Left's cry that abortion was outlawed ain't getting the traction you think it is.

People are pretty wise to Constitutional matters.

Can't mandate a Federal ruling for something that never had a Federal Law.

Probably because people don’t want to have children around when there is another Pandemic.

Why would that make a difference?

Overturning Roe didn't make abortion illegal.
