A country needs a 2.1 birth rate to maintain it self, fall too far below that with out makeing up the difference somewhere and your country will collapse. This is going on in Europe right now, several nations there are 1.7 or lower and they are haveing a hard time maintaining thier standard of liveing.. The US Birthrate is around 2.1 and is the only western nation that has positive population growth, growth that's required to sustain the current standard of liveing.
