Under a magnifying glass, you can easily read the "R" inside the circle directly to the right of the "s" in 'United States'. This symbol "®" stands for "registered" as in a commercial registration of this image; indicating that the phrase it follows is privately owned and that any use of it (in this case the two words 'United States') beyond the 'owners' specific authorization is prohibited!
THE QUESTION IS:
"Who OWNS the registration of the words 'United States' when these two words are being used together to define not just an aspect of this Republic; but the entirety of the nation as a state and as a country? And: If those two words can be privately owned and then used in the process that counts the people, to determine how much money each district will receive, based on population-numbers: What does this say about the "nation" that has now obviously become privately owned; not to mention the people within what has become a privately held corporation? Have the people of what was the United States without the®, been purchased; along with the actual former name of this country?
