2010 Census $$$
"The Census Bureau contracted an agency, to create, produce and implement campaign for the 2010 census. The contract was awarded as an Indefinite Delivery (IDIQ), multiple year contract with an estimated value of $207,000,000 (but not to exceed $300,000,000.)
The campaign creates awareness about the census and motivate each household to fill out and return ASAP. The Census Bureau estimates that 2/3 of the overall Census costs will be spent on people who do not reply by mail. It costs approximately $75 million to count each additional "percentage point "of households."
At the rate the government is paying out your tax dollars it's going to be cheaper to pay people to send them back.
