Is America’s Population Being Engineered Down?
from Paint The Town Red Podcast Hosted by Chance Boen
Who shapes America’s population—and whose interests do those decisions serve? In this episode of Paint the Town Red, I explore falling birth rates, immigration, and the relationship between population, labor, and economic power. From Augustus Caesar’s efforts to encourage marriage and childbirth to Paul Ehrlich’s The Population Bomb and Elon Musk’s warnings about population collapse, we examine competing ideas about how many people a society needs. Declining fertility and a shrinking total population are different things. With that distinction in mind, how much of today’s demographic change comes from personal choices, economic pressures, or deliberate policy? Watch the full episode and tell me where you stand in the comments.
