Should point out that white americans also produce at almost replacement level ( 1.8) and many hispanics are actually white. About 1/4 of hispanics are of fully european roots ( mostly spain/italy). If you include white hispanics, who are just latin europeans, the white birthrate in the usa is just at replacement level. Massive immigration however will make whites a minority by 2050 though.
Don't forget the selfish reasons why people are not having children. To save 'mother earth'? Not likely, as they've said themselves :" We can take more expensive vacations because we have no children." So who'll care for them when they get old? I can see society deciding to terminate people at a certain age, say 70 or 75. Ever seen 'Logan's run' ?
Honestly, you couldn't have been further from the truth with that one. All one needs to do is peruse a few statistics, reports, forums, articles and pages to ascertain that what you said is negligibly false.
Meaning - Wiki, Nationmaster, CIA World book all say around 500 million speak English (including 100 million Indians) . That's around 7% so I was generous. You must get your stats from web gossip or talk radio.
The first thing you discover when traveling abroad is how few speak any English - even in Europe. Having worked with foreign engineers, i can say that studying English is NOT the same as speaking it.
Please consult more reliable sources in the future. Take Care
