"The country is full."

"We can't take anymore people".

Then what the hell are these state senators doing with their abortion laws!! Didn't hear the president when he said that. They should be subsidizing abortions before we end up like Hong Kong.

about population loss for decades Cleveland has lost 100s of thousands and so has Pittsburgh and hundreds of other communities. The largest city in my county has gone from 13000 to just over 5000 in my life time.
They worry it will lose its city status next census.
