Reddit reviews What to Expect When No One's Expecting: America's Coming Demographic Disaster

JVL wrote a book on the topic FYI

For those of you that want to have your blood boil, or have a good laugh (or cry) at what the religious right is thinking about this topic have a look at this "documentary", this book, and this book as well.

I am not promoting these books (I vehemently disagree with this thinking), but this is actually a serious movement within social conservatism and social conservatives who are kind of freaking out about the low birth rates and extremely widespread use of contraception.

I think both, really.

Large immigrant population = higher fertility rate, because those recent immigrants have more kids as immigrants usually do.

But a lot of pro-natalist writers cite France as one example where the pro-natalist policies have done at least something. Jonathan Last discusses France starting on page 148 of "What to Expect When No One's Expecting".

Some quick googling gives articles like:

The comments on the book mentioned in that article are incredibly depressing.
