An insert in my Census questionnaire is quite explicit that the information collected by the Census cannot be used by law enforcement or tax collection agencies. It cannot be used in court. This means the threat of a fine is invalid.
Heres the boilerplate:
Federal law protects your privacy and keeps your answers confidential (Title 13, USSC). The answers you give on the census form cannot be obtained by law enforcement of tax collection agencies. Your answers connot be used in court. They cannot be obtained with a FOIA request.
What does this mean
“respondents are not required to respond to any information collection unless it displays a valid approval number from the office of management and budget” on the back page.
I will answer #1 and mail it back.
Filled mine out today. No biggie.
“Yes, I know I don’t look 47. Thanks!”
“For the last time, I’m positive I’m not Hispanic”
“I would love to live somewhere else, and might be able to if you’d stop taxing the living shit out of me”
I only answered how many people.
They are REALLY interested in who is Hispanic. Damn dividing politicians.
No. They just want to know where to efficiently deploy their Acorn task forces ...
