Interesting thought, however if you look at the demographics that problem is being addressed. Native born Europeans have had negative population growth for quite some time, in France the trend started just after WWI and has been accelerating to this day. Japan started later but has been out pacing Europe, (those Japanese have always been so damned competitive about everything). If it weren't for immigration the US would have just slightly above or below 0 population growth, depending on the year you have data for. Canada, a country I have found no, easily understandable, good data for is probably somewhere between the US and Europe, as usual. Most places in the world that have high population growth are where the conditions for human life is, shall we say, more difficult. I know what conclusions I draw from this information but I'm sure others will draw different ones depending on their ideological bent.
