If there’s one thing we Americans understand, it’s that royalty isn’t a birthright, it’s a financial status.
A baby is born every 8 seconds—what’s the big deal about this one? Sorry, but to us the so-called “Royal Baby” is just another of the 3,000 human offspring born into this world every 20 minutes (meanwhile, during the same 20 minutes, another plant or animal becomes extinct—27,000 species each year). The majestic brat is really only one more of the hundreds of thousands of little darlings born that day, or the 1.5 million people born every week.
(That’s like adding a city the size of Phoenix or Philadelphia. In just one week! And around the world right now, one in ten people lack access to clean drinking water, one in eight doesn’t have enough food to eat, while one in five lives on less than $1 a day.)
According to the Population Clock, there will be 125 million births in the world this year. By the time this group is ready to start school, there will have been at least another 625 million new humans born.
In light of all this, the birth of the “royal” baby hardly seems newsworthy.

Hello My Awesome Blogging Friend! Did you see this today?

I’m so pissed off right now I could knock a building down.
From one of the Commonwealth countries and I don’t care either. Didn’t care about the royal wedding as well. I agree, royalty is a farce; it is just another way of controlling and using people. Though no matter which government system you come from, it’s safe to say we’re still living like we were in feudal times, where the ‘nobility’ make all decisions to benefit themselves and those without clout are cast to the wayside and completely ignored. Humanity needs to get its priorities straight.
There are other members of the animal kingdom more worthy of bearing offspring. They are far more adorable too.
Yes, far more.
love the post! But bundle of joy enough already give me a break…glad the television as mute!
Glad the television has an off button.
I live in the UK and proudly pay no attention whatsoever to our royal “family”
The biggest difference between the Royal Family is when one of them is born, nobody dare count the fingers and toes. 🙂

Thank you Jim! The baby can’t burb without it being reported. Meanwhile the planet is in it’s sixth mass extinction. I wish people would stop worshiping celebs and royalty and start worrying about what overpopulation is doing to the blue orb will live on.

I mean burp..lol.
I knew what you meant;)
I totally agree, and I am an English woman living in the US. I am far more concerned with this planet and what we stupid humans are doing to it and all the other species trying to live on it. The Royals do not matter at all they are just another lot of humans beings, but our planet and the environment does matter greatly. It is as though we are all trying our hardest to extinct ourselves and doing a very good job at it too!
