Dr Oz: "One in three Americans are under-babied"

People can't afford housing, gas, groceries, college educations, student debt, and are under threat of losing their jobs to AI, so by all means, more babies!

1. Gosh, Dr. Oz, then you'd better say something about all the parents who are refusing

lifesaving Vitamin K shots and vaccines for their little ones. Babies that are already here are dying!

[no_hypocrisy]

2. Couple of things:

One: Translated to me under-WHITE-babied.

Two: Maybe we'd have more babies in this country if you weren't so busy deporting them and their families.

3. Didn't Oz really mean "White people" are

under babied.

[Ocelot II]

4. Reading this swill makes me realize that I'm under-liquored as well as under-babied.

I'm much too sober to be subjected to this lunacy.

5. I think he means under white-babied.

Just sayin

[Midnight Writer]

6. We are over-crazy-old-white-men.

[efhmc]

9. So true.

[Blue Owl]

7. Pay no attention to the man behind the pedophile

[efhmc]

8. And we will continue in that direction as long as we are treated as baby manufactures and not humans.

[GiqueCee]

10. And Oz is...

... under-brainied.
None of Trump's confederacy of dunces has the remotest clue what they're talking about. Oz just pulls numbers out of his ass, thinking that if the demented psychopath he works for can do it, so can he.

11. Us brown folks are doin' just fine, Doc.

Now you white folks, on the other hand…

[haele]

12. Is he talking about the increasing number of grown-assed adults -

Who feel the need to be babied?

Or is he like those grannies who tell people who get a female puppy or kitten to "don't fix them until they've had a litter or they'll be vicious" - stating that females need to have babies or it hurts their health.
Tell that to the 10 -20% of women throughout history who died of pregnancy complications. Far greater percentage of dying early due to pregnancy complications or pregnancy- related hormonal imbalances than some sort of cancer because you never had kids or were on birth control.

15. From the subject

That's what I anticipated. Glad he has all the medical terms for low population growth. Under-fucking-babied indeed.

13. Hey forced birthers....

As of the most recent 2024–2025 data, over 70,000 children and youth/young adults in the United States are currently in foster care with a permanency plan of adoption, meaning they are legally free to be adopted. The total number of children in foster care is higher—estimated around 329,000 to 391,000. (National Council for Adoption).

This number does not include those that have been adopted and are being neglected, physically or sexually abused, or psychologically traumatized due to the agencies' or private attorney's failure to screen the prospective parents beyond their net worth.

Oh, that's right, your formal policy is that you don't care about them once they are born, especially POC, PWD, LGBITQA...who you actively kill slowly through oppressive policy and societal marginalization and neglect.

Equally as moronic, you actively block responsible, productive, and qualified LGBTIQA people from adopting, because of your anti-christian Christianity.

14. ... says the doctor of the rapist

[msongs]

16. a conerstone of nazi philosophy was a breeding program, no marriage required, just have the blood line

and no abortions please. do it for the race

[Bettie]

17. I have 2 kids in their 20's and one in high school

all three feel that they probably won't be able to afford to have kids, given how our economy works or rather doesn't work for younger people.

[BigmanPigman]

18. In other words, women are merely baby makers

nothing more. What else is new. This has been a theme for thousands of years in many cultures and societies.

Nothing changes, everything stays the same for the men who control the entire planet.

[Totally Tunsie]

19. Damn...Why am I beginning to worry that, under this regime, we'll all be REQUIRED to have babies?

Whatever happened to the idea of Zero Population Growth?

[dlilafae]

20. then he should

have a few.
