| Editor's note: If you think that's bad, just remember that we're one of the sparsest populated countries on the planet. Massive overpopulation is our number one problem. Solve that and global warming, pollution, etc. goes away.
Census Bureau Projects Population of 303.1 Million on New Year's Day
As our nation prepares to ring in the new year, the U.S. Census Bureau today projected the Jan. 1, 2008, population will be 303,146,284 -- up 2,842,103 or 0.9 percent from New Year's Day 2007. In January, the United States is expected to register one birth every eight seconds and one death every 11 seconds.
Meanwhile, net international migration is expected to add one person every 30 seconds. The result is an increase in the total U.S. population of one person every 13 seconds.
