question #3

• Who are 1970-stock Americans?
• If the chart had been started at any other date in U.S. history, wouldn't it have looked very similar?
• Total U.S. population?
• Why has the green block grown during a time when Americans have had a below-replacement- level fertility?
• Does the red block include illegal aliens?
• Something doesn't seem right here. The chart shows immigration causing the majority of U.S. population growth. But most news reports say immigration is only about one-third of growth. Why the discrepancy?
• Why do these charts start at the 203-million level?
• Why do these charts start at 1970?
• How can I change this trend?
