...According to The Wall Street Journal, "The most stringent pay restriction bars any company receiving funds from paying top earners bonuses equal to more than one-third of their total annual compensation." That means that a trader making a modest salary of $400,000 who brings in $50 million in profits for his firm would probably be paid less than $600,000 under the new rules. Most traders get bonuses at year end. Successful traders can make $10 million or $20 million a year in exchange for pumping up their employer's bottom line...

...problem is that it is not easy to count every person in the United States, and some communities are disproportionately left out of the total. The 1990 census missed an estimated 8 million people - mostly immigrants and urban minorities - and it managed to double-count 4 million white Americans. Recent or illegal immigrants are often reluctant to answer questions in a government survey, and many experts fear that concerns about government misuse of personal data post-9/11 could hamper participation in the 2010 census as well. Children have also traditionally been underincluded in census totals...
