Is the US Dying?: Population, Immigration, Economy, Culture, and Childbearing

Did you know that the US population is in decline? Most of us don't think about population that much, but it has some pretty significant impacts on daily life: who your neighbors are, what jobs are available, and what your family looks like. Listen to https://www.thecrossingchurch.com/staff/keith-simon/ (Pastors Keith Simon) and https://www.thecrossingchurch.com/staff/patrick-miller/ (Patrick Miller) as they discuss and debate these topics, based on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_Yglesias (Matthew Yglesias's) book https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/50165554-one-billion-americans (1 Billion Americans).
