Theres been a 10point reduction in the marriage rate in the last decade. What astonished me looking at the numbers again is that its been 50 since the era of the 19 physician. We all talk about out of wedlock childbearing. The childberg is not the problem. We are below replacement rate birth rate in the united states. Only two years of the last 42 have we been above replacement, even with the influence of immigrants to the country. Its the out of wedlock thing. And ill add one last point to that out of personal experience. I imagine theres some in the audience too. When young people come out of college, and theyre doing what we consider pursuing the American Dream in the right way, and their initial experience is a debt thats larger than the mortgage of their parents, we have a problem.
