ALEXANDRIA, Va., Dec. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- A new Forum paper from Negative Population Growth has revealed that 'smart growth' won't be enough to solve the population crisis in the United States. The paper, titled Spoiler Alert: 'Smart Growth' Won't Save the Day, by Mark Cromer, examines the challenges posed by the country's rapidly increasing population and the need for meaningful dialogue to produce policy initiatives that can reverse the trend. Cromer begins his work by noting: "With more than 8 billion people now crowding a planet that continues to convulse with the conflict and corruption that drives mass migrations, the United States confronts its own steadily escalating population growth and the challenges it presents in both the short-term and over the long haul."

ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 29, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Following President Joe Biden's executive orders that effectively eliminated immigration enforcement measures along the southern border, a new era of sustained mass migration has been rolling unimpeded across the American frontier. According to The Point of No Return, a Forum paper written by Mark Cromer and published by Negative Population Growth, Inc., this migratory wave has been funneled into a national network of NGOs, religious organizations, and other groups that facilitate their dispersal and settlement across the country. Some analysts suggest that the actual number of migrants entering the U.S. is likely to be even more staggering than what is being officially reported. Cromer looks into the issue in-depth and reveals how a system ostensibly created to control immigration has been reconfigured – or corrupted – into one that facilitates a flood of humanity.

Key Points:

Cromer looks into the issue in-depth and reveals how a system ostensibly created to control immigration has been reconfigured – or corrupted – into one that facilitates a flood of humanity.
Cromer asserts that leadership from both parties in Congress generally share an almost neutral "It's not as bad as it looks" approach to immigration.
Looking at working-class American culture, Cromer explores commentary that has cynically cast mass immigration as a necessity stemming from Americans' refusal to work.

ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 21, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- While the U.S. continues to churn out alarmist headlines on low birth rates, one country is currently experiencing a population decline and thriving at the same time: Japan. If we are to believe the civic and social welfare of our nation depends on growth-based economics, then what is going on in Japan? This question is the thrust of author Nathanial Gronewold's new Forum paper, published by Negative Population Growth, Inc. His work, titled Japan's Ride into the Demographic Danger Zone – and Why It's Nothing to Fear, explores some of the differences between population trends in Japan and the U.S. Gronewold's piece takes the reader from perspective to perspective as he navigates population patterns and outcomes in Japan and how they relate to the U.S. "The evidence is mounting," he shares, "a declining population need not spell economic doom and could even usher in something of a renaissance."

Key Points:

Alongside Japan's advanced technology, Gronewold sees another positive: "IEEJ's electricity data shows the Japanese economy is becoming more productive.
Leaning into the favorable situation in Japan, Gronewold shares research from Japan and studies completed outside of the country to fortify his stance.
