I just got my census form in the mail. To say the least I'm not pleased. This is much more than a headcount. These people are asking alot of totally unrelated personal questions.
Examples of questions:
11a. Does this person speak a language other than english in the home?
11c. How well does this person speak english?
21. LAST WEEK, did this person do ANY work for pay or profit?
22. At what location did this person work LAST WEEK?
23a. How did this person usually get to work LAST WEEK?
24a. What time did this person usually leave home to go to work LAST WEEK?
24b.How many minutes did it usually take this person to get from home to work LAST WEEK?
Well, you get the idea. There are questions regarding ethnic origin, income, employment, military service, dicriptions of your home, homeowners insurance and more!
99% IS STUFF IS NONE OF THEIR DAMNED BUSINESS!
Just who the hell are these people to go butting their noses into my private life? What has any of this got to do with how many people live in this country?
THIS REALLY PISSES ME OFF!
I'l return their damned form with just the number of people in my home and nothing more! That is what the Constitution calls for and that's all they'll get!
I've already called my congress critters to express my anger! I strongly suggest you all do the same!
