U.S. Census Bureau

NO. You’ve got to be kidding…
Now, a follow-​up post card simply reminding me how important it is that I fill out my 2010 Census Form and mail it back?!
I already completed and mailed my form, thanks – without your silly reminder. Way to waste even more resources.

Tree killers!

Yep. Got my letter letting me know to expect another letter the other day. Just opened it.
YAY to the US government for wasting money, paper and time. Our tax dollars at work!
ETA: Wait. I’m a Right Winger? Bwahahahaha. Wait. And HAHAHAHA.

Article 1 section 2
The House of Representatives shall be composed of Members chosen every second Year by the People of the several States, and the Electors in each State shall have the Qualifications requisite for Electors of the most numerous Branch of the State Legislature.
No Person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the Age of twenty five Years, and been seven Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen.

But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-​one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-​one years of age in such State.
Perhaps a bunch of San Diegoan right wingers * (it has been brought to my attention that I have been most presumptuous in the assertion that all SDers are right wingers and if I have offended SDers who are not right wingers or right wingers who are not SDers, I do sincerely apologize) ought to read up on a little bit of United States history and the Constitution before writing reviews of a government agency that is wasting their tax dollars.
The Federal Government — pah! We should stop wasting our money and just let McDonald’s run the country. hmmm?
Maybe they already do?
Who wants a Big Mac?

CONCLUSIONS:
1. Our US Census Bureau is run by inefficient morons, with Robert M. Graves the biggest one of them.
2. Hundreds of trees died in the making of the millions of these letters.
3. Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of gallons of fuel and watts of electricity were wasted delivering these letters.
4. Several hundred thousands of dollars were added to our $ 12,500,000,000,000+ National Debt
5. Why couldn’t they have just stuck the survey in the same stupid envelope?
I’d like to thank China and the various Arab Governments for funding America’s stupid decisions like this one.

Do you ever find yourself sitting around wondering how long the average commute time is? What about how much money people make? What the percentage of married people under 25 is?
Don’t freak. Just read the census!
Census data rules. I’m seriously obsessed with the census.
I’m sure that I’m not the only one.
