Is It Getting Crowded In Here?

According to the Census Bureau, the 300 millionth person arrived in the United States at 7:46 a.m. ET today, either by being born, getting off an airplane, or if you're an alarmist, by sneaking across the border. It took 423 years to hit the 100 million mark, 52 years to add another 100 million, and 39 years to reach this point. At this rate, the 400 millionth person will arrive in 2043, either by being cloned, getting off a hypersonic shuttle, or if you're an alarmist, teleporting across the border illegally.

And that lucky 400 millionth person is going to be stuck with one hell of a Medicare bill.

Here's my suggestion.
