Well, it looks like there’s something in the water in the US, and it isn’t little blue pills or gay frogs for the people who, like Alex Jones believe.

My American readers, will get that in-joke.

Recent US Census data shows a 40-year low in the birth rate — about 1.6 per woman, according to the Geopolitical analysis.

Peter Zilhan also states that for the United States to have healthy demographics, it needs a birth rate of around 2.3 to 2.4% to take into account the deaths suffered in the United States due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which he puts around 1 to 3 million.

Furthermore, due to the fentanyl crisis within the United States, drug overdose deaths rose from 2019 to 2021, with more than 106,000 drug overdose deaths reported in 2021.

Deaths involving synthetic opioids other than methadone, primarily fentanyl, continued to rise, with 70,601 overdose deaths reported in 2021.

Fentanyl is a more concentrated dose of heroin that is produced from poppy plants.

What makes fentanyl even worse is that it is 50 times stronger than heroin and 100 times stronger than morphine.

Substantial economic implications could follow with the birth rate well below the replacement level.
