The more I read about this, the funnier it gets. To the question about why they need our names, this is their answer:

Quote:
Listing the name of each person in the household helps the respondent to include all members, particularly in large households where a respondent may forget who was counted and who was not. Also, names are needed if additional information about an individual must be obtained to complete the census form. Federal law protects the confidentiality of personal information, including names.
Are you f*^*ing kidding me? Are people so stupid in America now that they can't remember who they live with? They wouldn't be able to glance at the number of birthdays that they listed and decide if they forgot someone?

Person #1 is asked 10 all other persons are asked 7 and for some reason they want to know sex and race and Hispanics are not a race.

I don't think I'll answer those and they also want to know if we live in a home, mobile home or apartment. Sounds like they are trying to get a feel for where the largest voting block in the country lives.

Kind of would like to skip it to get a visit from a person. Probably learn a little more about it talking to them. Wife doesn't want that to happen unless I'm here. I see it's already all filled out.

Kind of surprised they haven't started asking about pets.

Don't count on it,mine was delivered in person,and the guy couldn't or wouldn't answer any question that I asked him,I asked why they took GPS coordinates to everyones front door,said he didn't know.
I asked why I didn't get the thing in the mail,no answer.
I asked him why we were asked questions that were not in the constitution no answer.
But I did find out he was an out of work mason,we talked for about half an hour and he told me they never gave them any answers to any of the questions that I asked.
These people who come to see you are just pawns like this guy was just a guy out of work trying to take care of his family,they don't know any more then we do.
The census was to be used to figure out how many representatives were needed for each district so we would have appropriate representation,and the way I see it they don't represent us anyway they do what they want and the hell with us,so I see no reason to give them anything more than the number of persons living in my household.

I'm a little easier to talk to than most. Guy might even have some hunting land he doesn't use.

Martini bars are way more productive for gaining access to great properties. Folks who go to them have money.

I just did mine, took me less than five minutes to do it for me and my wife. There wasn't anything in there that they didn't already know. I just hope they can read my writing.

I never thought of that; that's a good idea. Note to self......

I wouldn't answer a single question. This is just Obama's way of taking all of your money and taking away your rights.

This is a day to day battle against Obama and the rest of the people who are trying to destroy our county as quickly as possible.

What happened Will? you've been singing your daddy Obammi's praises since the election.
Did you wake up and figure out it was a snow job.
