Maybe they should stick to asking only the relevant questions like how many live at this residence. /s
I’m actually looking forward to a brownshirt showdown.
I am very tempted to rip off the first page of the census and only mail that part back in. It has the first question on it and that's all they need. The other part has our address on it. Paranoid...YEA, who wouldn't be with the intrusive government who wants to tell us what to do, when to do it, and oh by the way, we're taking more tax dollars too.
I have been reading these census threads. I dont know how many of you have ever seen the censuses of the past, but i have literally seen millions.
I do genealogy, plus am currently working on indexing old censuses to get them online.
These censuses, dating back to the 1800’s basically are all the same, asking the same questions. Name, names of people in the household, their age, their “color/race”, married/single/widowed/divorced, date of immigration, date of naturalization, country/state of birth for each person and their parents, type of work they did and some, even the price of the home they live in.
What they are asking in this census, is no different from any other. There is absolutely nothing new here, in fact, they are asking for LESS information.
I know most people dont care, but these censuses, for genealogists are a very valuable tool.
That is all the information we plan on giving ..let them guess

That is the ONLY question I will answer.
IF they send a person out here rurally to talk to me, they will encounter a locked gate and my shotgun. Period.
If they insist on knowing how many bathroms I have, they can go to the county and look up the building records. Period.
Just got my Census form...had to get it from a neighbor’s house, because USPS delivered it to the WRONG address. Just can’t wait until the clowns are in charge of the American health care system...it’ll be a killer.
Put mine in the mail today.
Answered 2 on line one and wrote in large print across the rest of the form, NONE OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS!
