We've been seeing the humorous commercial ads for the 2010 US Census for a few weeks now. Funny as they are, one has to ask who paid for these? The answer of course, I did, and you did! In fact the cost for airing the ad during the Super Bowl alone was 2.5 MILLION dollars. More of our hard earned tax dollars being flushed down the toilet. Numbers have yet to be released on what it cost to make the commercials and air them on a regular basis. Let alone the millions that are spent to actually conduct a nationwide census. Why would our government spend such an exorbitant amount of money when we are in a deep recession? The answer could only be, so that they can further rob us of our liberties and our money.
I urge my fellow liberty-loving Americans to think twice before participating in the 2010 Census. Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr., founder of the Ludwig von Mises Institute in Auburn, Alabama wrote an article entitled "The Census and Despotism" that is well worth reading. If you like keeping your money and your liberty then read it. And if you are looking for an intelligent source of information regarding the political affairs of our country, you should follow Campaign For Liberty. It's not about being Republican or Democrat; it's about liberty.
