Actually, it's a crime to refuse to respond to the Census Bureau, although I don't think there has ever been a prosecution.

Apparently, the right to privacy so clearly spelled out in... Article, um, no, I mean Amendment number, uh, well, anyway... of the Constitution only permits the dismemberment killing of children, not refusing to answer intrusive questions.

I think the maxiumum fine for not answering is $100. On the extremely unlikely event that they prosecute and convict you, you won't go bankrupt paying the fine.
