"2008 figures:
India- 2.7 children born /woman
U. S.- 2.1 children born/woman = replacement rate
United Kingdom- 1.96 children born/woman
Sweden- 1.9 children born/woman
Japan- 1.3 children born/woman
China- 1.7 children born/woman (reflects the one child policy)
Thailand- 1.65 children born/woman (down strongly from 1960s as a result of government measures)."


          It looks like Thailand is on the right track. There might be something to be learned from Thailand.
          I wonder what the US rate would be if they got rid of "birth right citizenship." Then all the babies born to illegal aliens would be attributed to some other country.
