This Makes Me Happy USA Women's Hockey Team Lost to Canada: Julie Chu and US Census Propaganda

I think I understand why the USA women’s hockey team lost. They have been too busy producing US government census propaganda that robbed them from their practice time.

I am sitting listening to the USA men’s hockey team whip up on Finland, six to one, on the MSNBC live streaming feed, when suddenly silver medalist Julie Chu introduces herself begging for Americans to answer this year’s intrusive census. I wonder how much of our tax dollars this USA hockey player made to smile and sell us on answering all of our census questions, even the unconstitutional questions beyond the required head count.

Since the federal census advertising campaign kicked off, millions of more dollars have been totaled into the national debt for these feel-good commercials. Why our government is spending so much for a head count is beyond me, other than these happy commercials will make people think less about the census requirements in the Constitution and answer the more specific questions the government is asking this year. (Remember when the census was planned, ACORN was supposed to participate as well.) I still haven’t figured out why Americans can’t log into a Web site and fill out the questionnaire not only to save processing and supply costs, but also to save big costs to taxpayers including hiring thousands of people to count heads.

Because of this commercial, I suddenly wish I was on the ice smoking a cigar with the Canadian women’s hockey team. I could have brought the Shiner Bock to drink. I bet you can't get that over the border.
