birth rate

August 20, 2012

Stable civilizations have Government rather than anarchy. In a democracy the Governments are directed by elected Politicians. In our American-style democracy uneducated voters allow morally corrupt Politicians to win elections using SHOD (Smear, Hypocrisy, Outlandish Claims, and Deception). As a result, uneducated voters are causing unemployment. My analysis begins in 1973 when our birth rate had declined to 3.13 million births per year. America continued to develop labor saving devices (electric motors, combustion engines, and the computer chip). America also continued to outsource manufacturing jobs to lower cost foreign competition. Extrapolation of these two parameters to year 2012 indicates that our current birth rate should be approximately 2.4 million births per year. The sad reality is that morally corrupt Politicians deceive uneducated voters by creating Illusionary jobs. Beginning In 1967 they attempted to use inflation. In 1981 they began to reduce inflation and increase Federal Government Deficit Spending. In 1999 they began to create more Illusionary jobs by degrading our banking system to allow the risky mortgages that created the housing bubble and the financial crisis of 2008. In 2009 morally corrupt Politicians reduced risky mortgages and increased the Illusionary jobs based on Federal Government Deficit spending. The number of uneducated voters deceived by these cruel Illusions has now grown so large that they are creating real children faster than morally corrupt Politicians can create Illusionary jobs. To be specific, our current birth rate is 4.0 million births per year and unemployment has increased. In 1979 our morally corrupt Politicians reduced capital gains taxes so the wealthy could become wealthier. In 1982 they added income tax reductions and claimed that trickle-down economics would reduce unemployment. In my opinion our democracy cannot survive if America continues to depend on Illusionary jobs. In order to reduce unemployment we need to gradually reduce our birth rate to approximately 60% of the current value. In addition, America needs educated voters who are willing to replace morally corrupt Politicians with Politicians who are willing to behave like civilized human beings. Michael F.
