. 1.93 can america is the average. we break that out by different demographic groups in different numbers. the white americans have the lowest fertility rate at around 1.6 and african-americans have what we think is a very healthy rip civility rate of 2.0 and hispanic americans have a high fertility rate of 2.35 right now. so really the only reason our fertility rate is not much lower than it is because the hispanic americans are doing all the heavy lifting and having all the babies that no one else is willing to have right now. but this is a problem in a real problem in america because we are so dependent on the fertility of hispanic americans but again the fertility decline of the hispanic americans particularly foreign-born hispanic americans is incredibly steep. the pew center surveyed a few months ago showing that over the last three years between 2007 and 2010 mexican born americans fertility decreased 23%. that's an astonishing return to the mean and so again looking at not just where we are now but where we are

how can america break this nexus? clearly it is essential to have and make long overdue politically difficult positions about government spending that america's fiscal cliff non-climbers recently managed to avoid making. adding more elemental level, showing what we need is significant attitudinal change. somehow governments some legislators, for example, have to start doing public finances is a vote attracting tool. my suspicion is they're not going to do that unless they send to things. the first is that the american people do not want to head down the path of economic europeanization in general. enough americans are willing to embrace what that actually means that the loveless specifics. as my book illustrates, even self describes limited government americans when it comes to reducing subsidies and regulations are specifically benefit their business or their industry or their town or their state. so in that sense, the bigger challenge is to ask ordinary americans. to put it bluntly, we need to accept that our partic

for they know that america moves forward only when we do so together. that the responsibility of improving this union remains the task of us all. our work must begin by making basic decisions about our budget decisions that will have a huge impact on the strength of our recovery. over the last few years, both parties have worked together to reduce the deficit by more than $2.5 trillion, mostly through spending cuts but also raising tax rates on the wealthiest 1% of americans. as a result we are more than halfway towards the goal of four trillion dollars of deficit reduction that economists say we need to stabilize our finances. now, we need to finish the job. the question is, how? in 2011 congress pa passed a law saying if both parties couldn't agree on plan to reach our deficit goals, about a trillion dollars worth of budget cuts would automatically go into effect this year. this sudden, harsh arbitrary cuts would jeopardize our military readiness and devastate things like education and medical research and certainly slow our recovery and cost us hundr
