If the waste were only $2.5m per day they could house 18,250 new families per year in $50,00 homes. Give them the home and a chance to make a go of it.
With the same $2.5m per day they could feed 833,333 people which is over 3 billion meals/yr.
I'd rather see them feed the 833,333 people than buy a Super Bowl ad.

Hey moron you do realize that the money form that ad comes from the census budget. And in the end a CORRECT census actually helps those that need help.If your community gets it's poor undercounted then it gets less federal $$ to help those poor. But you're too stupid to look at the "big picture" Wow so they spend $2.5 mil on a Super Bowl ad that they won't do again for another 10 fricken years. What's that $700 a day?
