Texsox Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Thinking ahead to the next census, and factoring in privacy concerns and technology, I'm thinking the 2020 census will be a report that Facebook prints saving the US hundreds of millions of dollars.

Balta1701 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Finally, a method of taking a census that can quantitatively exclude everyone who is poor, rather than just partially excluding them. Now all we need is a good talking-to about how the poor shouldn't have cell phones/laptops/whatever we've decided they can't afford today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 Libraries have access. Kids have access through school. If you want people to stay poor, keep them off the internet, especially by 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
