Chapter 1: What is the significance of America's birth rate decline?
Today we're going to talk about the 1.58 problem that is the biggest crisis taking place in America. This is the lowest birth rate we've ever had in the history of America. And by the way, last year only 3.6 million babies were born in America. Do you know three times in America we went on a run? that we had 4 million kids every year.
Once was five years, once was seven years, and once was 11 years. We're gonna talk about what that era was. Then we're gonna talk about why we stopped making babies.
Then I'm gonna give you some radical, radical solutions that if you like it, I want you to share it because I'm gonna give you a goal at the end because we want the White House to have this as a goal to announce from the top at the White House for us to decide to chase this one magical number that I think we can pull up but I'm gonna need your help to get this message out there.
So if you value out of this video, give it a thumbs up and subscribe to the channel. Okay, so let me tell you why I'm excited about this, because we are launching the new How to Fix series, How to Fix Anything, How to Fix the Child Birth Rate, How to Fix Disney, How to Fix Whatever You Want to Talk About, and you'll let us know what some of the topics are. We'll attack that.
And by the way, stick around until the very end, because some of you guys, the first five that manect me something, you're going to get something special, but stick around until the very end. So let's get right into it. 1.58. By the way, you know what the highest number is for birth rate? Boom. Our record is 3.77 in 1957. But we will come back to this.
So let's go look at some of the numbers here that we have. Check this out.

Chapter 2: What historical trends influenced America's birth rates?
1910, America's population was 92 million people. That year, we had 2.77 million newborn babies born. FYI, 2025 was 3.6 million. 115 years later, it's almost the same number. Look at this, birds per 1,000 population, 30.1, the highest in the last 110 years. Then we go to 1920, 106 million, 2.95, 27.7. 1930, population 123, we go to 2.6. 1940, 132, 2.5. 1950, 151, look at this, 3.632.
Do you know in 1950... We had more kids than we had in 2025. In 1950, with a population of 151, they, the 151, beat America's 340 million today. Think about that, what that looks like. That's like a smaller army going against a bigger one, and the smaller army beats the bigger one in making babies. Then we go, 1961, 79, 4.257 million today.
70 203 3.71 million 80 226 3.6 million 1990 248 4.179 million then we go 2000 281 population 4 million 2010 308 3.99 2020 331 3.61 and in 2025 we have 3.6 million kids so now what are the three times i talked about that we went on a run of having four million babies every single year i'll break it down for you the first one was 1954 to 1964.
During that 11 year run, we had 11 years, every single year Americans had 4 million plus babies. Lowest was 4 million 27, the highest we hit It was 4.308. Guess what? That's 1957. What was the record for us?
Chapter 3: Why did America stop making babies after past baby booms?
1957, 3.77. Why? Post-World War, people are coming back, seeing the wives, they're making babies, and baby boomers. Next one. We had five year in a row, 89 to 93, 4 million to 4 million, 179. Why is that? Regulomics, affordability, economy, people are making money. Let's have kids. And boomers started entering the workforce. They want to have a family. They're buying houses.
So the next move is having babies. Then from 2000 to 2009, believe it or not, was a record run we went on. Seven years, boom, 4 million to 4.3. Why? Strong job market, affordability to buy a house, and then high immigrant fertility. So immigrants who were here, They had first generation immigrants that were born here. Their parents were having a lot of babies.
That kind of helped us out with the numbers that we have. Now, let's go to the next part here. As we're looking at this, you may say, Pat, why did we get here?
Chapter 4: What radical solutions are proposed to increase birth rates?
How did this happen? Okay, these are the events, in my opinion, I want you to tear it apart, and I'm okay with this, but I'm not concerned about hurting your feelings. I'm sharing my ideas and what I see some of these leaks are because we have to address this issue. People say, oh my God, but Patrick, we can't afford to have... The U.S. can't even fit everybody in America.
What are we going to do if we overpopulate? Do you know what the entire... United States population, 340 million can fit in Texas. Do you know when you think about the biggest countries in the world with square miles, Russia's number one. You know who's number two? Number two is Canada. Number three is US. Do you know India and China have a billion plus, billion four, billion three? Both of them.
China's smaller than us. India's smaller than us. We have plenty of space to keep having babies in America and we have the economy for it. But why do we stop making babies? Let's look at it. How do we go from 3.77 to 1.58? Number one, women entering the workforce. By the way, in 1910, women entered the workforce because husbands went to World War I. They were forced to.
In the 40s, women entered the workforce because of World War II. They had no choice. They had to. In the 70s, it became permanent. It was no longer a thing. FYI, remember how I said 1957 is the year when we had 3.77? Do you know what percentage of women were in the workforce? 35%. You know what that number is today? 65% to 70% are in the workforce today, and that's permanent.
Some of you guys are probably in your late 20s, women, you're watching this saying, how dare he say this? You don't know the history because back in the days, you were able to stay home and raise the kids. That's the difference. You're choosing to do that today because that's what happened when we all started working. So it became a normal thing. All of us are like normal thing.
We're all supposed to be doing this. Let's go to the next one. Enovit, Enovit in 1960 was the first FDA-approved birth control which was only available to married women in certain states. Not everybody could take it. But wait a minute, birth control? I don't even have to think about it? I don't even need to go and call Mr. Trojan? Nope, oh my God, this is awesome, right? What happened? Let's go.
And then what are we not doing? Making babies. Okay, let's go to the next one. Roe v. Wade, what year? 1973. Do you know since 1973 when we do abortions, how many total abortions have happened in America? 65,464,000 abortions have happened in America since Roe v. Wade.
imagine if that was actually here and imagine what our birth rate would be what america would like how many of these were presidents how many of these were incredible generals innovators inventors we will never know number four age of marriage in 1957 was 20. today it's 28 to 30 for women age of marriage number five Culture shifted to individualism. It's about me, selfishness.
What about me, honey? Just care about you. I was watching a debate the other day between two women and one lady says, who the hell wants to be able to drop off their kids to Taekwondo when they hate Taekwondo and being an unpaid Uber driver? And the other lady says, what a selfish way of thinking. She called her a different word. I mean, if you want to find a clip, I'll send you the link as well.

Chapter 5: How have societal changes impacted family planning?
Bring them to the White House. This couple has a job, business. They just had their eighth kid. Let's celebrate them. Let's bring them to the White House. Okay, zero recognition if you're unentitled from programs. This incentive doesn't go to people that are just saying, let's have another kid, another kid, another kid.
No, no, that Lyndon Johnson stuff that we did back in the days that screwed up the whole thing, we're not for that. Next, only if you're married, Full-time job, no government assistant, period. This is an incentive program to recognize others to do so. Next, bring back father and mother of the year award. We gotta get back to it.
Recognize this husband and wife make $117,000 a year, yet they have six kids. They live in Missouri in this small town and their kids have a 4.5 GPA, 4.3 GPA, 4.2 GPA. Turn them into a hero in front of everybody. Here's how they make it work. Let us get to know their kids. Let us get to know their family. Let us enter into their kitchen and realize what it's like to raise a family like this.
Turn them into heroes. Bring back prayer to school. Open up the State of the Union. I would love to see the president go up with the State of the Union that's coming up. And before we get started, we bring a pastor. Hey. Can we get the nation to pray again?
Heavenly Father, before we get into the State of the Union, please strengthen the president to give a message to unify America at a difficult time right now. We pray for the folks that are having a hard time in different countries around the world, especially the folks in Nigeria, the folks in the Middle East. What if we open it up with a prayer? Oh my God, we start off with a prayer.
What is this? I haven't seen this in a long time before. Let's start off the days with prayers again. And five, incentivize media outlets who have shows, where the heroes of the shows are husband and wife, married with kids, with a big family. Give incentives. This is something that we can get Hollywood involved.
And all of this, by the way, I want to make sure I recognize the president for some of the work that he's doing, so it's not like they're not doing anything. They have Trump accounts. They just launched the Trump tax credits, and you got the access to IDF. But let me give the goal. You know what my goal is? Here's the goal. Highest we've ever hit is 4.317 million people born in a year.
I would love it in the next two or three years, 2026, 2027, 2028. I think this is more of a 2027 goal. What if in 2027, America, for the first time, we go on a run. And the goal, 2027, for the first time ever, America has 5 million kids. Oh, my God. Can you imagine if we go on a run like this?
Can you imagine all of a sudden, like, hey, I can't get a hold of John and Mary. They're probably making babies. Well, leave them alone. That's good. Do your thing. Oh, my God. What's going on after? What did you guys just do? We're making babies. You go into church, we're seeing all the kids again. You're trying to listen to service. Take the kid out.
