If you want to research the topic of an aging population and a falling birth rate try this article. Suffice it to say that the subject is complex. It includes a number of topics that need to be considered.
Some people may not like immigration but immigrants tend to be hard working and prolific. The trick is to keep immigration consistent enough to keep our birth rates high enough to replace our workforce as our population ages. This requires good schools and the ability to integrate immigrants children into our society so that they see themselves as Americans first and foremost.
Unfortunately the Trump administration’s scare tactics and fear mongering are not helping the country.
