Many of my former students have no children at all. They want a better life for themselves and their children (if they have them), and realize that a family with many children has fewer resources per child.

It's hilarious. I think it's just commentary on all the things latinos have brought to US culture. Ever seen the movie "A Day Without a Mexican"? But I hate articles like this- for some reason it brings to mind War of the Worlds. Some dooming voice over a loud speaker saying we are under attack. Except instead of aliens its "oh no the brown people are coming!!" Like the idea of less white folk is supposed to shake people. How can you be offended by that sign? It's hilarious.

All the other groups are counted together, so they make up the other 53%. But if white folks comprise 47% of the population, they're still the largest single group. It's already like that in our area. The white people make up less than 50% of the population. A variety of ethnic groups make up the rest... but none of those groups on its own is as large as the white population... yet. @Meg & Jamie: 47% is a minority because it's less than 50%.
