America at Odds with Itself: It's About the Numbers, Folks
Let's get down to brass tacks! I don't know about most Americans, but do you think America enjoys a sustainable footing as to its cities, its finances, its race relations, its 25 million illegal alien migrants - along with their EBT and Medicaid fraud, its $37 trillion national debt, its gridlocked cities, its toxic-air-polluted skies, its squabbling U.S. Congress in Washington DC that isn't working together for the common good of all Americans?
How could it get much worse? Well, it can, and it will. Each year, our U.S. Congress imports 1,000,000 legal immigrants that overwhelm our schools, our medical care facilities, our housing, our welfare systems, our transportation systems, and, well, just about every aspect of our society faces enormous consequences because of the sheer numbers being imported into our civilization. The greater their numbers the greater the problems, and unsolvable problems.
According to the Center for Immigration Studies in Washington DC, those immigrants add another 1,000,000 babies to the USA annually. As to population momentum from American citizens, we add another 1,000,000 babies, net gain, with our 2.0 average birth rate per woman.
"The annual population net gain in the USA was approximately 1.0 percent between 2023 and 2024, which is about 3.3 million. This is the fastest growth rate since 2001 and was primarily driven by international migration, not a higher birth rate."
Total increase: In the 2023-2024 period, the US population grew by about 3.3 million people, surpassing 340 million.
Growth rate: This represents a nearly 1.0% annual growth rate, the highest since 2001.
Primary driver: The significant increase was mainly due to net international migration, which accounted for 84% of the population growth.
Natural increase: The difference between births and deaths contributed the remaining 519,000.
In other words, in the next 25 years, we may expect, at current immigration rates, births over deaths, and added immigrants - a total rise in population of 3.0 million annually times 25 years, for a total of 75 million more people added to the United States.
Thus, from 340 million in 2025, we could hit 415 million people struggling with enormous challenges with food, water, energy, transportation, education, catastrophic climate destabilization, crime, illiteracy, millions of cars, millions of planes in the air, congested cities, power lines - just about everything we're dealing with in 2025 - will worsen by a factor of 75 million more people by 2050, give or take a decade. Additionally, most demographers project America reaching over 600 million by the end of this century.
But as it states in this report, those millions of people will come from 190 different countries around the world. We simply will not be Americans in America any longer. We'll house a giant hodgepodge of cultures, languages, world views, ethnic tribes, religions and conflicting political groups.
We can never catch up to population growth. Additionally, we are running out of water, energy and resources.
Dr. Albert Bartlett, Physics, University of Colorado, stated:
Unlimited population growth cannot be sustained; you cannot sustain growth in the rates of consumption of resources. No species can overrun the carrying capacity of a finite land mass. This Law cannot be repealed and is not negotiable.
That sums up our national crisis! Most people don't realize it, but America already stands eyeball deep in "Resource Crisis."
For example, all those immigrants used an average of 3 to 5 gallons of water daily in their overpopulated countries. Once they reach America, those gallons of water usage explode to 80 gallons of water daily. When you add all the services that grow food, transport, and industrial usage of water to make goods, it's over 2,000 gallons a day for each new added person into America.
Let's take our current 2025 population at 340 million times 80 gallons for each person, daily. We're talking into the billions of gallons of water, daily. Then, you add another 75 million people times 80 gallons and you're moving up into the trillions of gallons of water, daily. If you add the 2,000 gallons per person, daily, we're in trouble. At some point, when our numbers grow exponentially beyond sustainability, Mother Nature won't be able to give us enough water to irrigate our crops, feed our animals, and, the real kicker will happen when we don't have enough water for our toilets or taps.
What do you think? Right now, Florida, already struggling with water scarcity issues with 23.84 million people expects to explode to 32.4 million by 2050. What do you think will happen when Mother Nature runs out of fresh water?
California had 40 million people in 2025. They already face droughts, toilet to tap drinking water, horrifically gridlocked highways, and toxic air pollution.
In my own state of Colorado, we have 5.7 million people. Denver's traffic and air pollution creates a daily nightmare for everyone. Weekends going to the mountains have become a nightmare of 2 to 5 miles per hour traffic on I-70 for 90 miles to Lake Dillon in Summit County. You can't find a campsite, and in the winter, the ski slopes are bumper car crashes for humans.
Nonetheless, Colorado is expected to grow from 5.7 million to 8.7 million by 2050. Denver will grow from 2.7 million to 3.7 million. Worse, no one will talk about the future. In fact, all the media networks suppress any discussion on Colorado's impending population nightmare.
The one thing I've learned in my world travels: once the numbers manifest, there are no solutions. That's why China and India are gouging other parts of the world for water, energy, resources, and food sources. Their citizens stagger into each new day with another 1.4 billion fellow citizens trying to exist in the "squish" of human sardines in a can. That's why any and every citizen in India and China tries to "chain-migrate" into America or Canada.
Remember this: humans add, net gain, 83 million more of ourselves annually around the globe. Thus, there's no end to what humanity faces as it jumps from 8.2 billion in 2025 to 9.7 billion in the next 25 years. We are talking about numbers beyond anyone's comprehension as to their horrific impact on the Natural World.
You cannot enjoy "quality of life" in such "human compaction" countries.
Question to you: since we are headed for the same compacted future as China and India, what would you offer to change course? What can we do to save our children from such a terrible future? How do we move toward a safe, sustainable and civil society in 2050?
