If we all got busy, maybe we could hurry up and reach (4)(10)^8. :yikes:

Read about this in Comcast News, they said that the mark may well have already passed, & that the 300 millionth American may well have been someone crossing the border illegally...but that's a topic for another thread. What I found interesting was that the gov. is just gonna let this milestone pass without fanfare...back when we hit 200M (ca. 1967), LBJ had them announce it with a major press conference, complete with fantasies of how we could meet the challenges...as it turned out, they were also several months late in guesstimating when the odometer would click over...

They expect it to reach 400,000,000 by 2043 :sad:

don't worry, we've got a lot of domestic jobs and products that the world can't live without. cars, corn, wheat, tobacco, beef, computer products. plenty to 'round and something for everyone.

unless they start outsourcing, or hacking tariffs.

oh, wait....



i wonder if globalization will be complete by 2043. :D
or maybe space colonies
