You may have heard a recent episode of mine.

It was about the mountain of data that shows that kids in one parent households are falling behind their colleagues with two parents.

This episode is another part of that equation, a part that will no doubt shape the future of America.

They're called DINKS, also known as Couples with Dual Income, No Kids.

U.S.

Census data says that 43% of all American homes are childless.

For these couples, it's a financial boon.

Their net worth are also higher than households with kids.

And if you believe a recent Pew Research survey, 44% of non-parents ages 18 to 49 say they never want to have children. That's up 7% from the same survey taken in 2018.

How much this behavior will hold is a mystery. People get older and they change their minds. I know I have.

But one thing about this isn't going to change.

The more and the longer we as a society choose this path, will we shape the way things look in the future.

The implications of this are many fold.

Here are a few of the likely outcomes.

We'll have to lean on immigration to take care of a much older population in the coming decades.

And just to keep our economy chugging along, as is, if that's even possible. Look at Japan. It's not a pretty picture.

And our population, our melting pot, will end up blacker, browner, and whiter in ways we can't even begin to imagine today.

Because, my friends, demographics and birthrate are destiny.

What do you think?

And are you a dink?

And what are your reasons for it?
