Going deeper in the rabbit hole than ever before… The Dream on sale now

David Icke has become world-famous for his work exposing today’s fast-unfolding global dystopia more than three decades before it became reality.
They laughed then. But he didn’t stop there. He went further. Icke knew that the world of the ‘seen’ was only a reflection of something far, far, deeper that ultimately originates with a non-human force in another reality.
They laughed then, too, even many who call themselves ‘alternative’ thinkers. But he didn’t stop there. He went further.
Icke began to say after the turn of the millennium that human reality is a virtual reality simulation designed to entrap perception. They laughed again, and yet mainstream scientists have since concluded that we do live in a simulation. But he didn’t stop there. He went further.
The Dream sees David Icke go deeper in the rabbit hole than ever before to describe fantastic revelations about the nature of our reality, who we are, where we are, and the real origin of human control.

They’ll laugh again. But he won’t stop there.

Americans are having far fewer babies for a large number of reasons

Women in the US are having children at the lowest rate since record-keeping began; only 3.59 million births were recorded in the country in 2023, the National Center for Health Statistics has revealed. 

Americans have been having fewer and fewer children for the past 20 years, but the number of births last year is the lowest since the 3.4 million figure recorded in 1979, the NCHS report noted. The US population was 225 million at the time, compared to almost 335 million now. 

The general fertility rate fell 3% from the year before to 54.4 births per 1,000 women of childbearing age (defined as 15–44). The total fertility rate was just 1.61, down 2% from 2022. The US birth rate has been below the replacement level of 2.1 since 2007. 

Unplanned pregnancies – mostly among teenagers – have fallen by 2% from the previous year, representing a 68% decline from 2007 levels. Birth rates for the 20-24 age bracket have dropped by almost 50% since 2007 as well. The only demographic that saw an increase in birth rates was Hispanic women, with a modest 1% gain from 2022. 

The NCHS is a unit of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It relies on birth certificates to provide a snapshot of US population trends and does not look at the underlying factors, said Brady Hamilton, the lead author of the report.

Researchers raise alarm over Russian demographics – media

Karen Guzzo, a demographer at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, has pointed to research that shows young Americans are delaying family formation for financial reasons. Among the factors Americans have cited for waiting or not having children at all are economic strain, work instability, political polarization, student loans, healthcare cost and accessibility, climate change and global conflicts, Guzzo told the Wall Street Journal.

US birth rates rose slightly right before the 2008 financial crisis, but have declined by 11% overall since 2000. Guzzo has pointed to “unstable work hours” and lack of paid leave in the “gig economy” that has arisen since the Great Recession. 

Demographers such as Guzzo have argued that Americans need paid family leave and other benefits to promote the standard of living for young families. US surveys have persistently shown frustration with the “skyrocketing” cost of healthcare and childcare as well.

Birth rates in many wealthy nations with arguably better social support have been declining as well, however, which demographers have commonly attributed to “uncertainty” and “economic instability.” Meanwhile, the countries with the highest birth rates in the world in 2023 were all in sub-Saharan Africa: Niger (6.73), Angola (5.76) and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (5.56).
