At 7:46 a.m. EDT the population of the U.S. is projected to hit 300 million people.
What sort of lesson plans are available for such an event?
- AP story cites the Secretary of Commerce saying population is good for economy.
- Milwaukee Journal’s Eugene Kane says it’s “just another number.“
- Bloomberg wire notes the leading effects of immigration and immigrants.
- New York Times notes that married couples are now in the minority.
- San Francisco Chronicle says it’s good news that immigration is the driver, not birth rate.
Is there room for pondering such issues under the state’s education standards for social studies?

This is the 225th anniversary of the Franco-American victory at Yorktown. The French Defense Minister, Alliot-marie, will be attending the commemoration on October 19th.
Funny, no news about it in the MSM, or you might say thundering silence. Where is the rightwing press, 0’Reilly, Hannity, et al? Do you think they will mention it on the 10th, and the following detail?
“Did You Know?
The 9,000 American forces were in the minority during the Yorktown Campaign. The French army and navy combined for over 25,000 men, while the British army and navy participants numbered over 21,000.”
