Two More Census Workers Blow The Whistle


You know the old saying: "Everyone loves a charade." Well, it seems that the Census Bureau may be playing games.

Last week, one of the millions of workers hired by Census 2010 to parade around the country counting Americans blew the whistle on some statistical tricks.

The worker, Naomi Cohn, told The Post that she was hired and fired a number of times by Census. Each time she was hired back, it seems, Census was able to report the creation of a new job to the Labor Department.

Below, I have a couple more readers who worked for Census 2010 and have tales to tell.

But first, this much we know.

Each month Census gives Labor a figure on the number of workers it has hired. That figure goes into the closely followed monthly employment report Labor provides. For the past two months the hiring by Census has made up a good portion of the new jobs.

Labor doesn't check the Census hiring figure or whether the jobs are actually new or recycled. It considers a new job to have been created if someone is hired to work at least one hour a month

It's important to note that ACORN has a major problem with the Census. Or two, maybe. First of all, they were going to be supplying a lot of the workers, and the row over ACORN last year stripped them of that responsibility. Second, they believe that the poor, homeless, illegals, etc., are severely undercounted. Not enough Democrats, in other words.

Besides, I thought you didn't care how much the government spent trying to count you?
