BTW, Brazil's low ZPG fertility rate of 2.25 is _only_ the side effect
of television's soap operas, that spread the meme of families with
a small number of children. And, unlike the USA or Europe, there's
very little compensation from immigrants (I guess the USA rate would
be close to 1.5 if it were not for mexicans).
