Conservative Baby Boom, Liberal Baby Bust
In a trend that’s found worldwide as well as in the U.S.: Liberals are much less likely to have children than conservatives.
That trend "augers a far more conservative future — one in which patriarchy and other traditional values make a comeback, if only by default,” Phillip Longman, a fellow at the New America Foundation, writes in an essay in USA Today.
"Childlessness and small families are increasingly the norm today among progressive secularists. As a consequence, an increasing share of all children born into the world are descended from a share of the population whose conservative values have led them to raise large families.” Conservatives, most of whom are pro-life, are also less likely to have abortions than are their politically liberal counterparts. Liberals, in essence, may be killing their own future through abortion.
What they fail to mention here is ...............guys marrying guys and gals marrying gals. Libs need to figure out how a guy can have a baby!
