It's not about hiding Mexicans ~ It shows how much we're growing.

It's the nature of the times. The media has the hard-right and the hard-left both ranting and at each other's throats, so yeah....*every* last thing that could go wrong is going to be blown up into this huge political issue. And in this case, the issue is that the number of people each state gets in the House of Representatives is determined by the population of the state. The more people that are counted in any given state, the more seats that state could pick up. Between this and the whole "Puerto Rico statehood" measure in Congress now, either "side" could conceivably force itself to have a majority in the House, or could block the majority more deeply in the Senate. Then there's funding--some state and federal funding issues depend on population counts. But yeah, the biggest thing is representation. (and no, I doubt they're worried about that--most folks know Wal-marts don't have 20 people working there at once. That's just too inefficient don't you know.)

It is a big deal because communities get money from the Government based on Their needs. If They do not know were the needy are They can't help Them. And Yes the illegal immigrants are making life difficult for the rest of Us. They do not contribute to the tax pool which helps other poor people Who deserve it. However the census is not designed to find illegals. There is another department to do that, and that costs the U.S. taxpayers a lot of money, and makes Our lives a little harder.
