Fox News Senior Medical Analyst Marc Siegel made some eyebrow-raising comments lamenting that birth rates are down among teenagers aged 15 to 19.
On Thursday, the National Center for Health Statistics reported that the U.S. fertility rate fell to another record low. The agency reported that the number of births per 1,000 women of childbearing age declined from 53.8 in 2024 to 53.1 last year. The latest figure represents a continuation of a decades-long decline in fertility rates.
Siegel joined Friday’s edition of America’s Newsroom, where Dana Perino said that while the continuing trend is not surprising, “the numbers might feel a little shocking.”
“Not enough teenagers are being locked into poverty with unwanted children. This is bad for the oligarchs.”
Fewer girls to rape. Their worst fear.
not enough meat for the grinder, we got too many wars on the books keep them babies comin!
I feel like that’s kind of the core of the birth rate panics across the whole age spectrum by the billionaires. None of these fuckers think 20 years in advance to care about a smaller future workforce, but what a low birthdate impacts immediately is the financial solvency of those potential childrearing parents. Fewer and later births means one fewer pressure they can use to exploit workers.
When you’re trapped in an uncaring machine that demands you toil for the rest of your life or die penniless on the street, one of the only ways you can fight back is to just stop participating. The machine may have me but I won’t feed it more.
