And we’re about to legalize another 11 million?

For the first time, America’s racial and ethnic minorities now make up about half of the under-5 age group and will be a majority by this year or next.

That’s according to new census numbers that show a faster shift than expected toward a minority-majority, one where whites will be in the minority by 2043.

The new estimates also show that, for the fist time in more than a century, the death rate for white Americans outnumbers the birth rate.

The Census Bureau reported earlier this year that non-white babies now outnumber white babies.

Fueled by immigration and high rates of birth, particularly among Hispanics, racial and ethnic minorities are now growing more rapidly in numbers than whites.

Based on current rates of growth, whites in the under-5 group are expected to tip to a minority this year or next, Thomas Mesenbourg, the Census Bureau’s acting director, said.

The government also projects that in five years, minorities will make up more than half of children under 18. Not long after, the total U.S. white population will begin an inexorable decline in absolute numbers, due to aging baby boomers.
