America reaches 300 million milestone.

300 Million Milestone

WASHINGTON Today's the day when the nation's population officially hits 300 (m) million.
The Census Bureau will record the moment at 7:46 a-m, Eastern time. But don't expect any photos of new babies. That's because many experts believe the population actually hit 300 (m) million months ago.The government is letting the milestone pass quietly, although Census Bureau workers will enjoy cake and punch. For one thing, it's not easy estimating the exact number of people in a country the size of the United States. Then there's the matter of illegal immigration.The Census Bureau has a "population clock" that estimates a birth every seven seconds, a death every 13 seconds, and a new immigrant every 31 seconds.The 200 (m) millionth American was born in 1967, and the United States adds about two-point-eight (m) million people a year.

Congratulations to all the American hypsters! Your country's only 1 billion away from equaling China's current population( by then China would probably have 6 billion people). t:

meh, 60 million are illegal so that shouldn't count

 

[Fred_Fury]

Illegal or not, they're people populating the county, of course that should count towards our population.

What the **** is wrong with you?

There is nothing good about there being 300 million on the whole planet let alone in one country.

Hmm... Somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. You obviously couldn't tell I was joking amongst all the anger you are feeling!

Oh...

The smilie said otherwise.

 

[Darthphere]

Oh sweet irony if it was an illegal immigrants child.

Indeed.America is aryans and asians,i suppose the USA can ask Russia for some nerve gas and spread it around the country so a few million minorities can die.

Its interesting to note,that in the original post there is a comment "The government is letting the milestone pass quietly" because it can now be said that America is over populated.America is destroying its own image..

Could you hate America a little more irrationally, please? That'd be swell. Thanks.

It's not ignorant, 60 million people(and that's a fact) in the USA are illegals and shouldn't count on the official census

Like 'em or not, they're still a part of the populace whether they're here legally or not, though. Census figures are used for infrastructure planning, social program planning, and so forth. Leaving out that big of a chunk would seriously skew those numbers and cause many problems.

Jag, I don't hate the illegals. I know some are really trying to make a better living here. I just don't believe we should pay extra taxes so they can get more free stuff, there's plenty of ways to earn your keep, from ditch digging to collecting cans. Quite a few don't bothered working and live month to month on governments handouts and I know it's not just illegals that do that.

What do taxes have to do with census numbers?

It's true, the other day I was crossing the border and they where handing these ragged looking people some Ipod nano's.
I was pissed I was all like "where's mine?" and the Border Patrol agent was all like "it's for illegals so **** foo!!!!"


and then i was sad

Census numbers are used in tax dollar allocation to social and welfare programs.

I can see how you can feed a fmaily of 5 collecting cans. Its so easy i dont nkow why more people quit their jobs and do that.

I'd become an illegal alien for a free iPod, but it'd have to be the full size video-capable one not one of those Nano's.

I don't disagree, but it still doesn't change the fact that census numbers are used to determine how much money should be put into certain social and welfare programs and having any of them horribly underfunded because we left out 60 million people could wind up a disaster.
