I figure that was a waste of at least a million.

Also do we really need a million people to count 300+ million?

"But the report by Commerce Department inspector general Todd Zinser makes clear the government is at risk of wasting millions of additional dollars without tighter spending controls by the Census Bureau on its 1 million temporary workers."

I just wanted to post here to let you guys know that I will be posting here sometime next week.

Sending someone a letter, to tell them you will be sending them a letter
is certainly redundant.

Our tax dollars at work....

Today I received a letter in the mail basically stating that in "about one week from now, you will receive a 2010 Census form in the mail."

Did you receive one of these letters?
Wasn't this a waste of paper?
