I don't try to use pseudo-scientific terms to sanitize my comments like: "The goal is to preserve a particular biocultural entity". Do you honestly think that you are fooling anyone with such phrases? It's meaning was patently obvious i.e. the goal is to keep America white - ethnically of European extraction. Good grief. That might be your goal, but there may be other goals that value the perpetuation of a nation for its own sake rather than supporting the insular identity issues of those who are insufficiently invested in preserving that "biocultural entity" that they would voluntarily have more than 1 to 1.5 kids per couple, if any children at all.

This.
Exactly this. We need to change what we are valuing to fix this problem.
There was a time when children were not seen as a burden but something to be baked and cherished. Being a father or mother was something that was respected.
Now children are seen as little more than tax deductions that clearly aren't worth the deduction. Marriages and Parenthood is seen as a buzz kill instead of something to aspire to.
People have forgotten how to sacrifice and go without. Long term planning and desire for future reward has been tossed aside because.... hey check out the new iPhone 7.
Humans with these priorities at the top will go extinct.
Fear profits a man nothing.

Chinese birth rate not enough to replenish labor market...
Demographic time bomb continues to tick away in China
Fri, May 19, 2017 - Even after the Chinese government cleared the way for couples to have a second child, working women are reluctant to expand their family — or have any children at all, according to a new survey by Zhaopin.com, one of the nation’s biggest online recruitment Web sites.
About 40 percent of working women without children do not want to have any and about two-thirds of those with a child do not want a second, the poll found. In big cities, such as Beijing or Shanghai, hefty living costs, long work hours and surging expenses linked to raising children have deterred more women from becoming moms. The phenomenon is not unique to China, given the pressures that working women face around the globe. However, it is particularly acute for the nation given its rapidly aging population.
More than three decades of a one-child policy has left the nation with too few young people to support an expanding elderly population, which is eroding competitiveness and weighing on the social welfare system. After announcing a two-child rule in October 2015, officials estimated an increase of 4 million additional births per year through 2020, but last year births increased by just 1.31 million from a year earlier to 17.86 million. That prompted the government to consider measures such as “birth rewards and subsidies” to help encourage more people to have another child.
Yet China remains far from providing incentive packages as seen in Singapore or Germany and a porous safety network offers little help to families who cannot afford children’s education or healthcare. Child-bearing might also lead to real financial or career losses. The survey found that 33 percent of women had their pay cut after giving birth and 36 percent were demoted. Among the top reasons cited for not having kids by the Zhaopin.com survey are “not enough time and energy” and “too expensive to raise children.”

Get that birth rate up so America will be as rich as India!
Most rich nations have decreased birth rates. It's a thing.
