I just checked the population statistics at the United States Census Bureau. Here are the current figures:
- United States: 322,821,970
- World: 7,298,425,970
Here are the figures of 10 years ago today:
- United States: 297,895,645
- World: 6,491,026,072
Here are the percentage increases:
- United States: 8.3
- World: 12.4
Is anyone besides me disturbed by this? I'm glad I won't be alive in about 30 years. The world is going to hell in a handbasket.
Addendum: Ten years ago, there were 20.7 nonAmericans for every American. Now there are are 21.6 nonAmericans for every American.
