# David Nickles I'm all for ending immigration suppression laws.  But...

*January 9, 2025 — Comment Archer T. Ships replied to David Nickles's comment.*

David Nickles I'm all for ending immigration suppression laws.  But with a few exceptions, birth rates are falling below replacement all over the world.   Israel is the only technologically developed country with birth rates above replacement.  Sub-saharan Africa is the only region with above replacement birthrates, but those will also decline as the continent modernizes.
