They had the money anyway, there's nothing better to use it for than to increase the turnout for the Census, which is quite an important event in the US, it affects a great many factors of the governing of states and districts.
Oh noe guis obama is doom he is doing census!!!!11111
[QUOTE=Savaril;20038269]What's funny is that the money being used on the Super Bowl could be used to [I]invade[/I] third world countries. [/QUOTE] Fixed it for you.
[quote]Should the government be spending millions of taxpayer dollars on Super Bowl ads for the census in these times of daunting deficits and busted budgets?[/quote] Uh, yes, because the Super Bowl is the only time the government will ever be able to talk some sense into the southern rednecks who have magically developed the conspiracy theory that, ever since Obama was elected to office, the United States Census is a part of a Socialist takeover of the United States.
[QUOTE=Uberslug;20036546]That's an average of about 1.8 cents per taxpayer if my calculations are correct. WHO THE FUCK CARES[/QUOTE] I do that math in my head every time I see stuff about the budget
They already have a decent ad campaign outside the Super Bowel. Why do they need a Super Bowl ad too? LOL Super Bowel, Funny what a typo can do.

NASA is too expensive, let's spend the money on a sports game
The census is pretty damn important, and people need to be made aware of it so they'll fill out the damn form and mail it back. No-brainer, really.
Reminds me of the sledging riot officers thread. Everything is a waste of taxpayers money apparently.
In the UK we could just whack this on the BBC for free. I anticipate the results of the "Religion" question in the US and UK censuses.
It's not about the cost for each person, it's just that the government could do so much more with that money.
BRB going to make a new news thread titled "Taxpayer money wasted on Iraq and Afghanistan wars".
I'd rather have it being used for entertainment than to kill people in war.

Tax payer money wasted? Like I haven't heard that one before.
[QUOTE=kevn150;20036299]It's not like the government is spending our tax money on training monkeys to dance, at least they are doing something useful.[/QUOTE] Like Super Bowl ads.
[QUOTE=wuzzimu;20036279]People need to stop worrying about every single dime of "Taxpayer money". Edit: Myself included. I lose a solid portion of every paycheck to taxes as well as union dues.[/QUOTE] Your right, It's only 25,000,000 dimes were talkin about
[QUOTE=KrAzY_nikomo;20038622]I still don't understand people watching sport events. Sports are boring to play, and even more boring to watch.[/QUOTE] ye i know fuck outside vidya games 4 life! But I actually agree with you.
Also, don't complain about the Census wasting taxpayer money. They give hundreds of thousands of people much needed well paying temporary jobs.

[QUOTE=MR-X;20036311]You'll worry about it when you start paying taxes.[/QUOTE] I will not :smug: [editline]11:15PM[/editline] the second I mean
[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;20045919]Also, don't complain about the Census wasting taxpayer money. They give hundreds of thousands of people much needed well paying temporary jobs.[/QUOTE] How about instead of wasting money on the ad, pay those temps more? That will stimulate the economy!
This is outrageous
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;20047195]How about instead of wasting money on the ad, pay those temps more? That will stimulate the economy![/QUOTE] They pay the temps better than most jobs already, and raising awareness about something that only happens every decade is fairly important business.
