US birth rate of 1.6 is below replacement, immigration is below net zero, death rates are climbing but people think the population is growing.
What's their problem?

The estimated population of the United States as of mid-year 2025 is approximately 347,275,807
Births are around 10,000 a day,
Deaths are around 9000 a day.
Approximately 2,200 immigrants and refugees are newly admitted to the United States daily.
So the US is gaining over 3000 people per day.
Scenarios:
Zero immigration: If there were no new immigrants, the US population would decline, reaching 225 million by 2100 - equivalent to 1980's total, according to CIS, a North American Community Hub article. In this scenario, the population would have peaked in 2026 at 333.4 million.
Low immigration: With low immigration, the population would peak in 2043 and then decline.
Higher immigration: With higher international immigration, the population would continue to grow throughout the century.
In essence, without immigration, the U.S. population would already be decreasing or would start decreasing very soon, with the point of zero net growth having already passed or rapidly

@Tastyfrzz no kidding. Maths that never changed. Numbers that resist reality!
You gotta believe those numbers! And I'll laugh over here by myself at the aging and dwindling that's not happening.
Old predictions. Stone carved stats!
