I didn't give out whether I had a mortgage or a paid off house. It's none of their business.
According to the Law, I just had to state how many people were living at my house.
I’m not 100% positive that that is true. By refusing to answer, you aresubject to a $100 fine.Knowingly providing false information is punishable by a $200 fine. The government is hurting for money and they know the only people who are going to have a problem with this are Republicans. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them fining people for non-compliance.
I got the "census" form at my farm house. Beyond the head count question, the rest reads like a loan application. No one lives there at the farm house now, so Zero gets a big fat zero on that form. I'm betting that they'll send out an ACORN worker to verify that no one lives at that address, all at great taxpayer expense.
Anybody else notice that the "head count" question was in a shaded box at the top of the first page, clearly designed to be separated from the rest of the private, probing questions? That one jumped out at me.
The head count is all they'll get from me. Obama can go pound sand on the rest of the information he wants. That info is on a "need to know" basis and he don't need to know any of it.
I think it is time to redefine “Race.”
Pondering this obsession with race in America and trying to figure out how any multi-generational citizen could be a single “race.” You can only be one thing, American.
My heritage covers American Indian, Irish, English, German, and Czech. I am a melting pot of my past heritage. I am not this thing called Caucasian. I am an American.
The “Race” question might only apply to the newly immigrated, but within a few generations their children and grandchildren will have a heritage. They will not have a “race” other than American.
It is time we start to redefine “race,” such that it restores pride as we are Americans and it is honestly politically correct.
Mostly the same here. Only headcount, name, and age. Under race I put Human with the comment “It is illegal to discriminate.” In the Phone number box I put “None of your F***in’ Business!”
