Having a regular census was considered by the Founding Fathers (Washington, Jefferson, etc.) to be a necessary revolutionary reform to make way for freedom.

The Brits held off another 54 years but eventually had to cave in on the idea.

No doubt you think you are fighting some sort of battle on behalf of something, but what it is remains unclear to anyone ~ probably not even to yourself.

“No doubt you think you are fighting some sort of battle on behalf of something, but what it is remains unclear to anyone ~ probably not even to yourself.”

Well I can come up with two reasons.

1) The fundamental right to privacy guaranteed under the Bill of Rights. We do not feel it is the governments business to know our racial or ethnic background. We do not protest being counted, but the way we are being counted.

2) To protest the government give-aways determined by the census results to specific ethnic groups only because of the color of their skin and not because of a racially unbiased economic need.
