Without World War II, would there have been a post-Great Depression baby boom in the West? Also, even if there would have been such a baby boom, would it have been anywhere near as large and as long as it was in our TL?
Basically, I am curious about this considering that the post-World War II baby boom appears to have been unexpected to some people. For instance, this 1930 article (true, it was written almost a decade before the start of World War II) predicted that the U.S. population in the year 2000 will be no more than 185 million--and probably considerably less than that! :
