So I go get the mail today and in the box I find a letter from the United States Census Bureau. Well, with all the advertising they have been doing lately (and I mean a hell of a lot of advertising - expensive advertising) I assumed it was the Census form we need to fill out. Wrong!
What I received in the mail was a letter informing me that I would be receiving a letter - next week - that I would need to fill out and return.
So let's review... I got a letter telling me I'm getting a letter? Yep, that's right!
Not just any letter... a first class ($) folded letter ($) stuck inside an envelope ($). Hmmmm... can you add up the money for this one? I can ($$$)! And while we are at it, how many trees were destroyed just to send everyone a letter telling them they'll be getting a letter? No, I'm no tree-hugger, but seriously? Our country has no money and they are wasting what little we have on this crap?
And yes... I will be sending a letter to my Congressman, Senator, the White House... and whoever else I can think of who won't care and doesn't give a damn.
